My name is Dr. James Lovelock, and I'm an academic and a huge musical theatre fan exploring the representation of all things queer in the musical theatre industry.

My guests today are West End leading man Zheng Xi Yong and West End leading they-dy Jo Foster, who have just finished starring in Fourplay at the Kings Head’s Theatre.

In this episode, we discuss queer, Asian and non-binary representation in Your Lie in April and Why Am I So Single, and start an entirely unsubstantiated rumour that Jason Robert Brown is planning a musical adaptation of the CBeebies show In The Night Garden.

As always, you can follow us on your favourite podcast platform, and don't forget to share this episode on social media.
