The Queer Quadrant
Four-quadrant films are movies designed to appeal to the biggest, widest audience possible. In the process, they can often leave out a lot of LGBTQ+ representation – but end up loaded with subtext. In The Queer Quadrant, hosts Brooke Solomon and Jordan Gustafson examine cinema in all its cultural contexts, and explore why your favorite four-quadrant blockbuster is maybe…not as straight as you think it is.

The Queer Quadrant
Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer/producer Kenny Neibart for another movie musical – this one very near and dear to our hearts. For Frank Oz's 1986 film, we discuss gender performance, stage to screen changes, advanced puppetry, Howard Ashman's incredible pen, and – you knew it was coming – the Muppets.
