RAY ROMANO - COMICS TO PAY TRIBUTE TO BOYLE

Comedians including RAY ROMANO, MARTIN SHORT and JEFF GARLIN will pay tribute to late actor PETER BOYLE at a fundraising event next month (Nov07).

Celebrating Peter Boyle: An Evening Of Comedy With Family And Friends takes place at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre + Club in Los Angeles on 10 November and will also feature funnymen Fred Willard and Richard Lewis. All proceeds from the event will go to the International Myelome Foundation's Peter Boyle Memorial Fund.
