Randy Roberts : You Need Us To Make The USA

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , ,

 

 

In Randy Robert’s latest show One Of The Girls who’s One Of The Boys‘ he knocks it out of the ballpark with his excellent impersonations of the likes of Joan Rivers and of course his fabulous Cher.  However, for Queerguru the show goes to an even higher plane when he’s performing as himself again. 

Last night he had the audience in raptures with his take on the Sondheim classic The Ladies Who Lunch.  But it was what followed that had us all up on our feet.  

It was a  queer patriotic song that Randy Roberts makes her very own in her show that was originally sung in the award-winning Off-Broadway musical known as Howard Crabtree’s When Pigs Fly in honor of the theatrical wizard who created it. The year  was 1996 when the AIDS pandemic had unleashed a whole new wave of homophobia and this very clever ditty reminded everyone “You Need US to Make The U.S.A.” Sadly Crabtree died of AIDS one week before the Show’s premiere: but this witty rousing song lives on ……in this case thanks to Randy Roberts

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , , ,

 

 

 

Will has fallen hopelessly in love with the seductive singer, “Candy”. The only problem: she’s his best mate in drag. As Will struggles to make sense of his newfound feelings, his life crumbles at the fringes. Should he seize life by his bollocks and tell Candy how he feels? Can he ever be with her? And what does loving her really mean? Queerguru talks with actor #MichaelWaller on the eve of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe where he and Reboot Theatre Company will be performing CANDY at the Underbelly Theatre.

Queerguru has just interviewed James Gavin about his new biography on George Michael so it seemed natural to interview Todd too. And we are so glad we did

‘Working The Streets” with RANDY ROBERTS

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , , ,

 

Randy Roberts is a consummate entertainer: actor, performer and very skilled female illusionist. He’s ‘old school’ drag who has developed his wonderful entertaining act from almost since he was still in short pants, and over the years has acquired a very loyal following across the globe . He is back in PTown, fresh from appearing on America’s Got Talent , and has his first summer residence for some years at Post Office Cafe and Cabaret . His new show has the appropriate title of One of the GIrls who is One of the Boys and he invited Queerguru to ‘work the street’ one sunny afternoon …. and you can see from our video …he has an infectious natural charm that no-one can resist ….even our Editor

Michael Childers :Legendary Photographer + one of the very best gay raconteurs

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , , , ,

 

Legendary photographer and one of the very best queer raconteurs ever,  Michael Childers has a whole history steeped in old glamorous Hollywood, plus his stint working with Andy Warhol etc etc

YET he lives very much for the present: we caught him when he came to Ptown (via Palm Springs/Paris/Provence) where he has a whole wealth of friends who know him as a gay Kevin Bacon ……all of us are just six separations away from him and each other. Check out what he had to say to Queerguru.
