Good Morning, World


I am seeing Cole Escola's comic theatrical juggernaut "Oh, Mary!" a second time in a few weeks -- one of my few claims to coolness is having seen it very early, well before it moved to Broadway, because I knew Cole to be a genius already -- because I had to see John Cameron Mitchell play the lead role; this was non-negotiable. I'd have loved to see everyone that's played the role since Cole left but JCM? No way I'm missing Hedwig as Mary. But I will miss seeing Dino Fetscher here in the role of Mary's Teacher (he's doing it in London) which I'm sad about -- not that I won't enjoy seeing Simu Liu in the role, but Dino... Dino is gay hunk royalty. Anyway he talks about that and other stuff in the interview attached to this gay hunk royalty photoshoot at 1883 Magazine, so check it. Or supposedly he does, I haven't read it yet. I needed to take some time with these photos. Phew! Hit the jump to take it all in for yourselves...

I will be in London next month, and have tickets to see Oh Mary already. Mason Alexander Park is playing Mary and Dino Fetscher is in it too. Can't wait!!
