Über diesen Titel
This week on Musical Midrash, we’re doing something a little different — and a lot more fun.
Join me and my husband, J. Kyle, for the next installment of J&D Talk About Musicals, where we dive into two exciting casting announcements:
✨ Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl (with Cynthia Erivo, Adam Lambert, and more)
✨ A benefit performance of The Drowsy Chaperone featuring an all-trans and nonbinary cast (Laverne Cox, Alex Newell, Jonathan Van Ness, Betty Who, and more)
We talk queerness, theology, casting as canon-expansion, Jesus with soft eyes, and why musicals might just be the perfect place to imagine a more inclusive gospel.
Spoiler: Alex Newell can do anything.
Featuring Themes Like:
* Trans and nonbinary representation on stage
* Queering sacred roles (and sacred texts)
* The Drowsy Chaperone as queer psalm
* Jesus and Judas as queer-coded dynamics
* The aesthetics of holiness, protest, and eyeliner
🎧 Listen now — and bring your favorite cocktail and Broadway hot take.
Because the theater is a sanctuary, and every conversation can be a blessing.
