LGBTQ All Out! Part I


We’ve got a new topic here at Let Me Ascertain You that we're calling "LGBTQ All Out!” and it's all about those who have battled for, celebrated, and championed their sexual orientation and gender identity. We dig into the personal stories, struggles and triumphs of a group of individuals in the LGBTQ community. Here, our Associate Artists and special guests perform interviews that we conducted recently. This podcast was recorded live at Barrow Street Theater in NYC. In this episode you’ll hear actor Paul Stovall perform an interview we did with Randy who works at a great organization here in Brooklyn called the Rainbow Heights Club. Check out their website: http://www.rainbowheights.org/. Then actor Blair Baker performs Tarina, an interview we did several years ago back when we were creating our show about the city of Colorado Springs. To close things out, we’ve got a song from Times Square. It’s a musical based on the early 80’s movie. The story is about two girls from opposite sides of the tracks, they meet, they fall in love, they form a band called the Sleez Sisters all set in the untamed Times Square of the 1970’s. Songs are by the amazing team of Jill Sobule and Robin Eaton, and here’s one of them. This is “Last Kiss” performed by Alyse Alan Louis with Mike Brun on guitar. Interviews for this podcast were conducted by Dan Domingues and Alison Weller.
