2023-09-27 Dracula!

Jonny interviews Tricia Burns, director of the Stage
Company's upcoming production of Dracula at The Varsity
(October 6-8 and 12-15). In the back half of the show, Jonny digs
into literary and folkloric transformations of the vampire to
explore the "queer monstrous." He links peasants with torches and
wooden stakes to the activities of Gays agains Groomers, Libs of
TikTok, and Moms for Liberty -- organizations that unfortunately
are making inroads in Illinois.
