This week’s guest is Iris. Iris is best known for being in the original Broadway company of Jagged Little Pill, as well as taking on the role of Anybodys in Steven Spielberg’s highly anticipated West Side Story.
Catch them this June in the new Netflix animated series Ridley Jones and mark your calendars for West Side Story on December 10th! I’ve got one hand in my pocket and the other one is pressing play on our conversation from May 20th on The SHO Must Go On...line! Thanks for listening to the 20th episode of bwaySHO: The Podcast. Join us next time for part II, where we kick things off with Ezra singing a beautiful Alanis cover with a Ukulele. Want to see my adorable pup Slimbo? He makes a cameo in most of my episodes of The SHO Must Go On...line! He’s the best co-host. Plus, he’s never too far from a post on bwaySHO Instagram.
I highly recommend reading this story by Christian Lewis: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back; Broadway's Jagged Little Journey Toward Nonbinary Inclusion. As well as watching this panel: Trans Representation On Broadway: A Response To Trans Erasure In Jagged Little Pill.
Thanks to all the SHOtreons and special shout-out to the SHOstopper and SHOnanigans levels.
