About Homotheatrical

I started as a queer theatre kid who had queer theatre opinions. Then, I took GESM 120: Queer Archives. Now, I’m a queer theatre kid who TRIES to explain his queer theatre opinions with queer theories and concepts he learned this past spring semester. Take a (very opinionated) journey with me as I go through my first-ever podcast “Homotheatrical,” where I not only TALK about my love for theatre, but also RANT about the shortcomings of theatre as it pertains to the queer community. All three episodes of the miniseries are available now! *CORRECTION: Jack Halberstam now uses he/him pronouns.*
