Scott Allen Capurro (born December 10, 1962) is an American comedian, writer and actor based in San Francisco. His comedy material is deliberately provocative, referring often to gay life and culture, politics, race and racism, and popular culture. ==Career== In 1994, he was awarded the Perrier Award for best newcomer, at the Edinburgh Festival. In 1999, he played the voice of Beed Annodue along with actor, comedian, and friend Greg Proops in ''Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace''. In 2001, Capurro appeared on Australian show ''Rove Live'' and shocked the host, Rove McManus, with an explicit routine. His material was no more bawdy than usual. Rove apologized immediately after the performance. In 2002, he presented a light-hearted documentary on the UK's Channel 4 called ''The Truth About Gay Animals'' which examined the subject of homosexuality in animals. Capurro visited various collections of captive animals to observe animals which had been reported to exhibit homosexual behaviour, and interviewed the staff about this. The show also included an interview with anti-gay rights campaigner Baroness Young, where Capurro showed Young a video of a variety of male-male intercourse and female-female mating attempts in various animal species, and then asked her to comment on whether this influenced her views about its "unnaturalness". Capurro has been a frequent guest on the ''Sarah & Vinnie's Morning Show'' of Radio Alice 97.3FM KLLC San Francisco. He is also a regular panelist on the topical discussion series ''The Wright Stuff'', hosted by his friend Matthew Wright. Capurro is managed by comedy agency The Comedy Bar. From May to June 2008, he acted the role of Sammy in Joe DiPietro's play ''Fucking Men'' in London, England.〔(Joe DiPietro To Open Newest Play In UK 5/16 ), Broadwayworld, May 15, 2008〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scott Capurro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
