In this hour, we talk theater with two of Houston’s movers and shakers. Brenda Palestina is currently starring in the Alley’s production of REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES, which runs through February 15th. The show is a mix of politics about women and immigrants that is more timely than ever. Then Brett speaks with Paul Hope about his cabaret show  Loverly- The Broadway of Lerner and Loewe (and Lane), which will be performed on Monday, February 9, 16th, and 23rd, at 7:30 pm at Ovations Night Club in Rice Village. Paul is a walking encyclopedia of Houston and musical theater. Rounding out the episode, Jacob Newsome interviews trans activist Raquel Willis. Raquel is a national figure in the Transgender Rights fight, and she has a lot to say about where we are.

This week, we are going non-binary! Brett drafts Clarity Welch of the Catastrophic Theatre to talk about their journey refusing to label themselves as this or that. Along the way, we discuss queer theater and pop culture figures who broke the binary. Then, non-binary director Andrew Roblyer tells us about their 12-hour directing marathon, THE DIRECTOR'S CUT. This event will take place on January 24th at Studio 101, located on Spring Street.  So let's peek behind the curtain of androgyny and agender!

Is that the air on fire, or is it just 2026? Dr. Lana Coble gives us the astrological insight into what 2026 has up its sleeve. Spoiler alert, it's pretty transformational. Things are really going to move, and some of you need to party like it's 1999. After that, Brett Cullum talks with Nimitz High School Graduate Darrel T. Joe about his homecoming to Houston with the 30th anniversary tour of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. It's going to be at the Hobby Center as part of the BROADWAY AT THE HOBBY CENTER series until January 18th.
