Brazilian Hand Shrink, Toxic by Britney Spears, and the Queerness of the Bard
We start with tiny hands then dive into Twelfth Night, Mid Summer Nights Dream, and Toxic by Britney Spears. We talk about how watching Shakespeare is easier to digest than reading it, and how you can cast an all-male production and call it "authentic."
We brought in our guest Matt to talk about why Shakespeare and his plays are inherently queer. Matt is starting a theater company called Brave New World Theater Company focused on performing Shakespeare through a queer lens, and this conversation sparked from that.
