Review of Queer Theory, Commentary Corral
This is an awesome, very entertaining listen. The stories are quirky and sweet, yet hold true to the speakers. All three storytellers have a distinct style that illustrates their stories. Not just about ?being gay?, this piece acts as a magnifying lens for some of us who, after listening to these hilarious stories, wish we could join in. Lines like; ?These are men who will kick your ass if you insult their poet shirt, but will buy you a Cosmopolitan if they scuff your shoes.? spoken by Matthew Terrell, stick in your brain and leaving you laughing. One small aspect of production that didn?t quite fit in with the overall charm, was the rapid transition between one story and the introduction to the next. One or two more seconds of pause would let the listener digest and prepare for even more laughs.
