Well argued.
I saw the original staging in the first national as a teenager and the first Mendes iteration. Same character defined by both the theatrical shorthand and cultural prism on homosexuality in very disparate eras. A sexual identity wasn’t imposed by Mendes; it was reminted with a fluid lexicon that post Stonewall America provided all stories with queer representation. |
