Wicked choreographer reveals Ariana Grande’s “deep” knowledge of Oz’s queer history

admin, , , ,

Behind the viral moments and emotional depth of Wicked’s musical numbers stands Christopher Scott, the visionary choreographer bringing Oz to life through dance. When it comes to the beloved musical, fans don’t necessarily think of choreography. In the acclaimed film adaptation from Jon M. Chu, however, dance has become just as much a star of the film as its iconic songs and protagonists. In December, GAY TIMES skipped down the yellow brick road to spend ‘One Short Day’ in the Emerald City with Christopher Scott to talk all things Wicked.…

Cirque du Soleil’s Corteo dazzles and delights at London’s Royal Albert Hall – review

admin, , , ,

Over the years we’ve become big fans of the Cirque du Soleil here at GAY TIMES, with their annual residency at the Royal Albert Hall being something we really look forward to, brightening up an otherwise dreary January. For this year we have a revival of their 2005 show Corteo, which is being staged at London’s Royal Albert Hall during its 20th anniversary year. As with previous shows, there’s not a huge amount in the way of narrative – which to be honest doesn’t matter at all, as we don’t…

Drag Race queens on why the world needs UK All Stars – and who should compete

admin, , , ,

The queens of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK say it’s “time for a UK-only All Stars”. At DragCon UK (10 January), nine legendary contestants from across the British series correctly told GAY TIMES that Drag Race UK is long overdue, and named the queens that should sashay into the werkroom for a second – and in some cases, third – shot at the crown. “There’s been so many of us, we’re ready,” said Divina De Campo, who memorably placed runner-up on the show’s first-ever season. “Look, they’ve gotta ask me. If…

The ground-breaking documentary which broke the silence on lesbian mothers’ custody struggles

admin, , , ,

Four decades on from its original release, Sophie Wilkinson speaks with Melanie Chait, the director of the 1985 documentary Breaking the Silence. WORDS SOPHIE WILKINSON Lesbian mums might be a normal part of LGBTQIA+ culture, but it’s not always been this way. As I recently uncovered for a BBC Radio 4 documentary Missing Pieces: The Lesbian Mothers Scandal, family court judges from the 1970s to the 1990s frequently took custody off of lesbians. Before the advent of artificial and then donor insemination, women would marry men, as was expected of…

New West End production of Oliver! is an absolute triumph – review

admin, , , ,

Where to begin with a show like this? Oliver! is one of the most famous musicals ever written. Charles Dickens’ original story gave us countless memorable characters, from the titular Oliver Twist through to the likes of The Artful Dodger and Fagin, while Lionel Bart’s musical brought the story to the stage with songs such as Food, Glorious Food, I’d Do Anything and Oom-Pah-Pah which are now staples of musical theatre. Many of us will have grown up watching the 1968 film, although it’s been quite some time since the…
