LMezz interviews the creator and cast of "The Great American Drama," a new play by New York Neo-Futurists Connor Sampson, Dan McCoy, Nicole Hill, and Katy-May Hudson.
Sara and Mariaisabel discuss the Broadway production of 'American Psycho' and wonder why it didn't get the acclaim it deserved. Then we talk about the new musical, 'The Total Bent' and it's melding of race, religion, and family dynamics.
Sara and Mariaisabel discuss the Deaf West revival of Spring Awakening, the importance of deaf representation on stage, and how the production illuminates characterization and choreography with its inclusive practices. Oh and our nipples.
Sara, a 'Hedwig' novice, and Norma, an obsessed fan, finally see 'Hedwig' together and discuss their thoughts about the show. We talk about Taye Diggs' performance and the significance of the first black Hedwig, the press's awkward and insensitive coverage of the show, and the show's gender and romantic themes. Warning: We do let the occasional curse slip every now and then. For links to articles/press discussed in our podcast, go to lettersfromthemezz.com
