Musicals w/ Mara Wilson - Ep. 161

Come on babe, why don't we dyke out about musicals with the OG book
witch, Mara Wilson (Matilda, Welcome To Night Vale)! Though good
queer representation is sparse in Broadway's history, we've
mastered the art of relating to the gentle lads who softly pine
over women. Or the leading ladies with short haircuts who made us
feel weird inside before we realized why. Mara shares her early
memories of musical theater that led to a lifelong admiration of
the art form. We also talk about crushes, past and present,
including the one that so many queer women have on Mara's former
co-star. And before we get into our topic, Carolyn and Melody give
a VERY detailed review of Ammonite, including key time stamps.
Plus, Hotmessbian hotties, Elliot Page, a simple plea to our
listeners, and more! Finally, we end with a question about a
lingering ex. -Get extra content (Like our Happiest Season review
