For each production at TMT, we like to ask our cast and crew members a few questions, so we and you can get to know them better! Some questions are standard. Some are specific to the show these folks are working on. Some are biographical, some are philosophical, and some are completely off the wall! But all of these questions provide a little insight into the wonderful artists that make up our Magnetic community.
See what these colorful creatives have to say, then grab your tickets and come see them in New Queer’s Eve, opening this Friday, 12/1!!
Today we asked the ensemble: If you could have a meal with one queer person throughout history, who would it be and why?
Luca Hinton | Performer
Only one?? You can’t make a useless non-binary, bisexual, vers, switch like me choose! I’ve never made a single choice in my life.
Sappho. Why not? Let’s go with the OG.
Dwight Chiles | Director
Sondheim came to mind first, so I'm going with that!
Rachel Fralick | Performer
Freddie Mercury, to hear more about his life and experience more of a safe space than was possible in the time he lived.
Jason Phillips | Lead Playwright
Oscar Wilde. For better or worse there would seriously be no modern gay culture without him. He was so smart, creative - and those are some amazing quips. It would be a fun evening and I'd want him to know how much he meant to me coming out and really being myself.
Adam Olson | Performer
Johnathan from Queer Eye. They're so sharp, witty, and sassy and they'll see right through me. I would love to pick their brain and have mine dissected. And maybe get some aesthetic advice because I really need it.
Morgan Miller | Performer
Trixie and Katya.
Both, nothing less.
Erin McCarson | Performer
Divine! I want to know everything! I want to make art together. I want to taste whatever she's eating. I want to hear all the stories. I want to try on her clothes!
Quinn Terry | Performer
Leslie Feinberg. After reading Stone Butch Blues I would just love to talk to Leslie about how to keep living, despite it all. How to keep fighting. What an inspiration.
Our amazing costume designer, Kayren McKnight, was on the same wavelength as our lead playwright, Jason: “Oscar Wilde - His writing is so ridiculously fabulous.”
Oscar Wilde wins the pot! Of what? Who knows?!
Get your tickets for New Queer’s Eve and come find out a little something of queer history, or tell us something you already know!
