Theater Talk • Harvey Fierstein on "Casa Valentina" 

I saw 'Casa Valentina' a few weeks ago and it was truly a magical evening in the theatre. It was like walking through a vanity mirror into the past. Breathtaking performances.

As always, thank you for posting your episodes! In this one, again I enjoyed hearing Mr. Fierstein's insights about everything and learning even a little about his point of view and creative process. He is someone I continue to learn about. Thanks again!

Charlotte is supposed to be Virginia Prince.. She coined word Transgender.. and she lived to age 97. She was a pharmacist by profession and a trans advocate. This show is really about trans persons living under gender oppression/segregation of society in the 1950s.

Why doesn't Riedl ever let Susan talk? So annoying!
