I Want It That Gay
It's 1998... you're sitting in front of your TV on Saturday morning and you're watching Video Hits. The Spice Girls pop up on screen, you LOVE The Spice Girls! But soon you're wondering - do I want to be Sporty Spice or do I want to be with Sporty Spice...? Reminisce on your favourite hits from the 1990s-2000's through a queer lens. Think Destiny's Child, Britney, Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys and more - queerified! The show sheds light, humour and darkness on the challenges of growing up with starkly heteronormative music, popstars and paradigms. At times hilarious and at times heartbreaking, I Want it That Gay is an irreverent look at the way popular culture shapes what we see and therefore who we're allowed to be. "This endearing, deeply relatable show is perfect for millennials seeking that nostalgic hit, but it's also the show for parents of millennials and elders seeking to better understand just what it was like growing up queer in the '90s." - Time Out
