SpeakeasyDC performs at For Shirts & Giggles – a launch party for Hugh & Crye

It’s time to take a stand against your out-of-date shirts that don’t fit. Join us on July 31, 2010 at For Shirts & Giggles to celebrate the much-anticipated launch of Hugh & Crye’s new line of high-quality, well-fitted men’s shirts.

SpeakeasyDC will be the featured entertainment for the night. In the spirit of the new company’s name, our best storytellers will share hilarious and true stories about “making a hue and cry”, in other words, standing up for a wrong.

Hosted by Amy Saidman and featuring Kevin Boggs, Sheldon Scott, Vijai Nathan, and Julie Kraut, hear stories about confronting rude customers that leave bad tips, challenging the power of fitness-bitches in aerobics classes, and fighting with a pair of Spanx.

SpeakeasyDC’s performance will take place at 9pm followed by dancing and preceded by a full day of shopping, munching, and drinking starting at 10am.

About Hugh & Crye

“We make shirts that fit” is how they describe themselves. And it’s not just a slogan, to them, it’s a cause.  The company is taking a stand  — aka a “hue and cry” – against ill-fitting clothing on men. It’s time to toss out what they call your “Uglies” and put on a shirt that’s made well (and responsibly) and that fits you right.  Thankfully, for the straight women and well-dressed gay men of the world, someone has finally heard our call for help. Our stories will reinforce the spirit behind the company’s name — in a nutshell, speaking out against a wrong.
