Are men in dresses on stage funny anymore? The New York Times posed this question recently, and it caught our interest. With “Mrs. Doubtfire”, “Tootsie”, and “Some Like It Hot” originally from a time where gender identity was not as openly discussed in society, do you think this comedic device has a place in modern theatre? Why or why not?
With special backstage guest, Jeremy Buechner, Benita and Ellen read our listeners' comments.
