Up next in our inaugural Halloween Spooktacular, we’re taking a look at 2006’s Lestat: directed by Robert Jess Roth; musical staging by Matt West; and with music by Elton John. Talking points for this episode include: was that a wig or real hair? Why are Jill’s cats so precocious? And how did no one say “it sucked” despite the low-hanging fruit being like, right there?
