Thanks to everyone who sent me clips & pics & memories of queer Broadway stuff (just in time for the Tonys!) after the last bonus video -- I love it! Keep it coming! Here's some highlights of stuff I missed (and at least one thing I got wrong), along with a never-meant-to-air video of the All in the Family cast making fun of The Family Viewing Hour and Captain Picard getting weird.

If the video embed isn't working for you, try this link: https://youtu.be/N762Yh3kEIQ 

And here's some additional recommended viewing:

Dance of the Vampires on Broadway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWYn3cCdIwI

And the best number from the vastly superior German version -- God this show is so good!!! https://youtu.be/QJURjF51LFE

Picard sings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHKSYGYP4a0

All in the Family cast doing a theme song parody (note what a great singer Jean Stapleton is when she doesn't have to do the intense Edith-affectation): https://youtu.be/IvrIltxWnS0

I'm working on a video next about the unlikely cooperation behind the scenes of the show Barney Miller -- and it's even more unlikely gay connection to Mork & Mindy and Happy Days. That oughta be out this coming Sunday.

Thanks again for all your support here on Patreon, and for all the wonderful fun stuff you send me!

Another great video as always! Quick correction: The 1984 original Broadway production of 'The Rink' starred Chita Rivera (along with Liza Minnelli and Jason Alexander), not Rita Moreno. Chita did win a Tony and a Drama Desk award for it though.

OMG the shawl reveal! :)

Wait, Steve Guttenberg? Complicated Sexuality? What?

I music directed and conducted "In Trousers" a long time ago in Washington DC. Written by William Finn ... it was the first part of his "Marvin Trilogy," which included "March of the Falsettos" and "Falsettoland." Finn and James Lapine then fused these shows into what became "Falsettos" which I also conducted 8 years ago at a NJ community theater.

Ok, so I just spent 2 hours watching Dance of the Vampires... that was utterly terrible and amazing, all at the same time. Got some good chuckles out of it for sure.

James Polk

So thrilled to be a part of the circle! Your little corner is always a pleasure to gaze.

Thanks for more great content!

Oh geez I did not mean to insinuate any ~gossip~ about Steve, just that it's weird to see him playing a queer role and also of course that he's a star of the Village People movie Can't Stop the Music.

Matt thank you for this. I am a trained opera singer who did her share of semi pro stuff. But all my life I've been obsessed with the musical and opera scene of the 70s. I have this vision of how it was. I truly wish I could have been a student/new performer in that Era. So you just added too my collection of confirmation how awesome it was and the talent we love who started there.

My favourite story from In Trousers has to be when Chip Zien (who played Marvin) thought that the song Whizzer Going Down was referring to Whizzer going to Florida, great video!

Martijn Spruit

And you didn't even show the line from Archie where he sings "Robert can propose to Bill"...

The Ritz, not The Rink. The Ritz is a play starring Rita Moreno (who won a Tony). He's wrong about it being a musical though. Rita's character has a musical performance in the middle, but it's not a musical.
