On the eve of the premiere of Brit queer writer Paul Harvard’s debut play GHBoy opening in London’s Charing Cross Theatre, he talked with QUEERGURU . The play explores gay culture, promiscuity, and the misconceptions that go along with this, and is inspired in part by the murders committed by Stephen Port, as well as Paul’s personal experiences of parties in his youth.
Orlando Soria is an interior designer, writer, visual artist, and now star of HGTV’s new hit show BUILD ME UP where he helps people redesign their living spaces after they have had a major life change. He’s a disarmingly charming man who brings such a sense of joy and humor into his work which all his clients love, including Olympic champion and heartthrob Gus Kenworthy. (we should add also that if you haven’t noticed yet, Orando is hardly heavy on the eyes)
.Orlando took time off from working with his latest client to talk with QUEERGURU so we could find out why he is so passionate about his work …..and his life too
Unassuming Matt Mahmood-Ogston is an unlikely LGBTQ hero, and even though he may deny it, he is exactly that. He turned the tragic death of his long-time fiance Dr Naz Mahmood into creating the Naz-Matt Foundation to stop religious homophobe.
Three days after 34 year old Naz had told his Muslim parents he was gay, their reactions were so severe and threatening, that he actually took his own life.
In the midst of his grief, when he confesses all he could think of initially was of joining Naz, Matt was inspired to start the Foundation. He wanted to help ensure that no gay person should ever be persecuted by their family for whatever religious beliefs they held.
On the eve of the Foundations new short film “My God Im Queer’ being screened at the Iris Prize Festival, Queerguru took the opportunity to talk with Matt about his own life’s journey and that of the Foundation. It is impossible not to be moved by him, and also be grateful for the essential work that he is spearheading
QUEERGURU can confidently tell you that queer movies as good as this come along far too infrequently, and you’ll kick yourself if you miss the chance to see it.
QUEERGURU was fortunate enough to catch up with Travis to talk about TWO EYES before the rest of the world got to see it
Queerguru talks with filmmakers directors/writers/producers Michael Seligman & Jennifer Tiexiera about their exhilarating new doc P.S. Burn this Letter Please about a whole treasure trove of letters from NY drag queens in the 1950/60’s that have just been discovered. It shows a wonderful slice of queer history pre-Stonewall that has never been documented in such glorious detail
The movie, produced by Craig Olsen & Richard Konigsberg is having a special Drive In Screening at Outfest Virtual Film Fest this weekend + can also be streamed on line
