And Phillip talks about some of his experiences being a gay christian man, and his views on LGBTQ issues and Religion.
Harriet, Emma and Scarlette are joined by Tyrone Huntley star of “The View Upstairs” a new Westend musical which is inspired by the attack that happened on the people of the “The Upstairs Lounge” which was a LGBTQ bar in New Orleans. The attack happened in 1973, but Tyrone shares what he learnt about the lives of the people who were involved and how far views and rights surrounding LGBTQ issues have come in less than 50 years.
And they discuss how musical theatre allows strong messages and important stories to be conveyed on stage whilst also celebrating the LGBTQ community!
Tyrone also gives us a little snippet of what the musical holds in store for us!
