DRAMA. with Connor & Dylan MacDowell

Connor and Dylan are joined by Harrison Ball & Jack Cameron Kay (Brokeback Mountain). Just in time for Pride, the stars of Brokeback Mountain at Chicago Shakespeare Theater join the twins for a gay ol’ chat. On opening night of their play, Harrison and Jack speak about embodying Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist onstage. Of course the boys cover the essential three C’s: cowboys, cigarettes, and crocheting. Harrison and Jack dish on getting naked onstage, working with the Brokeback Mountain film’s dialect coach, and their favorite moments to play each night. Jack, who starred in “Boots” on Netflix, plots a second season storyline for his character, as well as tells the guys about his iconic high school production of Phantom of the Opera - complete with a vomiting Christine Daaé. Harrison, a former principal dancer with the New York City Ballet, speaks about life beyond the ballet, as well as the remarkable story of his life. Listen as Connor and Jack queen out over Real Housewives of Rhode Island, while Dylan crushes on Nicholas Galitzine in Masters of the Universe. Get your tickets to Brokeback Mountain now through June 28th! There’s just no quitting these two.

Dylan and Connor are joined by McKenzie Kurtz (Schmigadoon, Heathers). It’s time for a second helping of McKenzie on DRAMA. as this diva makes her podcast return! McKenzie has been up to a lot since she last sat down with the twins: departed Wicked, originated the role of Cassandra in The Heart of Rock and Roll, slayed as Heather Chandler off-Broadway, and is now starring in Schmigadoon! This Drama Desk nominee spills on finding her version of Betsy, pulling funny faces onstage, and being given the freedom by director Christopher Gatelli to play. McKenzie reflects on Schmigadoon ending an era at the Kennedy Center, auditioning for the Apple TV series, and her Broadway.com Vlog. For those who heard our first chat, things come full circle as we dish on The Bachelor (none of us watch anymore - trust!), as well as gag over Off Campus and Rob Rausch. Listen as McKenzie gives us the tea on her relationship with Brent Comer, including the role that our episode played in the early days of their budding romance! Heathers, Halloween, and Heated Rivalry! Oh my! This is a delightful chat with a darling gal, and we simply adore her. You can’t miss McKenzie’s comedic prowess onstage in Schmigadoon on Broadway!

Y’all knew we’d have a true kiki with this West End diva, who has crossed the pond to take Broadway by storm. Actually, by iceberg, b*tch! Layton spills on being nominated for a Tony Award for his turn in Titanique, reprising the same role for which clinched an Olivier. He speaks candidly about receiving the offer for the role in the West End, as well as how his transfer to Broadway came to be.

Dylan and Connor are joined by drag superstar Suzie Toot (RuPaul’s Drag Race). Consider our engines STARTED! Hopped up on NeuroGum and with Pride on the horizon, these theatre queens joined together for a gay ol’ time. Ms. Toot fills the twins in on her upcoming one-woman solo tour, Suzie with a Z, which she is bringing to 17 cities across the nation this summer. All-singing, all-dancing, all Suzie Toot! This queen recalls when she last saw RuPaul in the flesh, speaks on the legacy of being the “Queen of She Done Already Done Had Herses,” and reflects on how life has changed after the race. Our guest spills the tea about Provincetown, her drag inspirations Dina Martina, Jinkx Monsoon, and Sasha Velour, and the key to tap dancing as a giant menorah during the holiday season. Of course we get into ButtTootKing (Suzie’s trio with Kori King and Lydia B. Kollins), their upcoming Halloween tour, and behind the scenes tidbits from Drag Race season 17. Why is Suzie a redhead?
