On Saturday 8th July, we launch our second series of Represent, the queermusicals.com podcast about LGBTQ+ representation in musical theatre and beyond. Dr James Lovelock is joined by a different guest panel every week to discuss how queer actors and creatives are changing the musical theatre industry and allowing LGBTQ+ people to see themselves - and be themselves.
Featuring Layton Williams and Liam Mower (Billy Elliot The Musical), Joe Foster, Jaz Terry and Aaron Shales (& Juliet), and Robin Simões da Silva and Teddy Hinde (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) with further guests to be announced.
Theme music: 'Sky Pop - Electronic Dance Music' by JuliusH
This podcast is funded by the University of Wolverhampton.

Welcome to represent the queer musicals dot com podcast.
In this series,
we're joined by Layton Williams and Liam Mower,
but it's not like a full on kiss.
Obviously,
we just used to be burping in each other's ears,
to be honest,
like licking each other's ears.
Oh my God,
me and my Michael.
Oh,
we used to be so naughty.
It was just like trying not to laugh like Joe Foster Jaz

Terry and Aaron Shales from and Juliet.
My May would,
would walk off right now and not give them the time of day.
So for me,
My May would fly,
My May,

Da Silva and Teddy Hinds from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
(00:47):

these gays.

Yeah.
More guests will be announced soon.
