Ep 189: Queer Musicals 2 — Falsettos, Hedwig, Bare, & Kinky Boots
With author ROBERT W. SCHNEIDER
This is the second part of my conversation with author Rob Schneider, who returns to tell us more about his new book, Queer Musicals — Boy Meets Boy to Jagged Little Pill. On this episode, Falsettos, Hedwig And the Angry Inch, BARE, and Kinky Boots.
Robert W. Schneider is a historian, director, producer, author, educator, and podcast host, and the Artistic Director of the J2 Spotlight Musical Theater Company in New York. And since working as an original programming producer at 54 Below, Rob has directed and produced over 100 concerts for the venue. His first book, 50 Key Stage Musicals, was published in 2022.
On this first episode in this series, we discuss the musicals Boy Meets Boy, La Cage aux Folles, and The Knife.
