saw this last night at the QFT with an auditorium full of other queers and it was a DELIGHT. I hope everyone experiences their first John Waters (!) the way I did. Divine forever <3

I was in a special and precious Cocomelon fugue state opening night in a theater packed to the gills with hysterical women, teen/tween girls, and gays and rewatching it under normal circumstances would undoubtedly break the spell and reactivate my critical mind. But I WILL be there for part 2

i went to see the new broadway production of cabaret this saturday on a complete whim (knowing next to nothing about the show) and i have not been able to stop thinking about it since. what a fun and entertaining yet deeply distressing experience— the intentional, immersive atmosphere brought me (almost blindly…) into the story. i found myself entranced in the hypnotizing world of the kit kat club, then immediately brought out of it by certain impactful moments; the feeling that i was a part of the show in a way made these moments hit me hard, and at times i felt my stomach drop as i was faced with nauseating reality. it can be so easy to move on with your life as though issues affecting others don’t affect you. as my friend lewin put it, it takes effort and a conscious choice not to become evil. if you don’t actively think in opposition to something, you are as good as enabling it— and i intend to treat my own moral views and opinions with more intentionality going forward.
not to mention, i saw this performance immediately after attending a protest against the current trump regime, and the themes of complicity in 1930s germany felt all too relevant to the politics of today. in all, a striking and upsetting, yet somehow incredibly entertaining, show that i feel will stick with me for a while. also, a very queer show. beautiful.

performed on stage tonight for the first time in 14 months with the coziest and kindest little theatre company and my dearest of friends in the audience. one night only (really 12 hours including tech + dress rehearsal) and yet the evening will probably sustain me through the rest of these winter days. London!! I love you sometimes.
