Doug Carpenter in Camelot

Doug Carpenter has become a bit of a sensation on Barihunks in a very short period of time. His dreamy good looks and enormously charming stage presence is winning over anyone who encounters this young talent. Here is a new head shot and two production photos from Camelot at the Pasadena Playhouse. If you're in Southern California, you can catch Doug Carpenter until February 7th. This performance has an "adult content" warning, so we keep hoping that some slightly more interesting photos will hit our in box. As a reminder, our email is barihunks@gmail.com.

An email from England informed us that the Wexford Festival's 58th season was a triumph, highlighted by the appearance of the tall, sexy barihunk Vittorio Prato. Here he is in a new YouTube clip from Rossini's "La Cambiale di Matrimonio," which was part of a double bill with Chabrier's rarely performed "Une Education Manquée." Prato also performed in the undisputed hit of the festival, Donizetti's "Maria Padilla."
