This Feels Bi

Broadway Feels Bi with Lauren Patten


Listen Later

Wanting to be on Broadway? Feels bi. Broadway itself? ALSO feels bi... (Or at the least, very very queer.) Yes, bi bi babes, get ready to be razzle-dazzled as we chassé our way into the wonderfully queer world of BROADWAY with Tony and Grammy-award winning performer and singer, Lauren Patten!

Beginning with her first Broadway performance as Medium Alison in Alison Bechdel's musical phenomenon "Fun Home," onto her award-winning performance as Jo in "Jagged Little Pill," Lauren discusses her own queer journey alongside her Broadway career, and how stepping into queer roles may have informed her own understanding of her queerness. We discuss why the *essence* of Broadway feels so queer, Broadway's portrayal of bi characters such as Maureen in "Rent" and Cliff Bradshaw in "Cabaret," and which gender-swapped roles Lauren would love to play. Get those jazz hands out, bi babes, as we tackle the musical world of BROADWAY.
