Donna Vivino has been a star of Broadway and Off-Broadway since she was just 8 years old and landed her very first part in the original production of Les Miserables. There’s been no looking back for her since then. Her resume includes roles in Cats,Wicked, Next To NormalHairspray, Finks, Grease etc etc. She has fashioned all of her past in her new cabaret show entitled ‘Confessions of Broadway Baby‘ which she talked about with Queerguru on the eve of opening in the Post Office Cabaret in PTown
Queerguru talks with Dustin Lance Black Oscar Winner, writer, producer, activist, mentor, husband and father about his excellent new memoir MAMA’S BOY in which he credits his mother for helping him shape his future. Published by Penguin Random House
Straight after the Sundance Film Festival last year filmmaker Kareem Tabsch, the co-director of the award winning documentary Mucho Mucho Amor called the Queerguru Office. He was very insistent that we get hold of a short queer animated film that had been showing at the same screenings as his film.
We did exactly and he was so spot on as we LOVED The Shawl so much that we tried to interview the filmmaker at that time. For some reason that never happened but now were more determined as the film is about to be screened at Metrograph in NY for a week. This will increase their chances of actually being nominated for an Oscar …… yes, it is that good.
So we tracked down Dusty Childers & Shane O’Neill a very extraordinary queer couple who have such a zest for life and a passion for Stevie Nicks which made for this perfect award winning short animated film Queerguru chatted with them and feasted our eyes on the fabulous duo who are the stars of this wee gem of a film directed by Sara Keiner
