My Queer Valentine (Re-Run)Rick Lau

The “love that dare not speak its name” is now the love that can’t shut the f**k up! From Cole Porter’s lyrics full of homosexual innuendo to Lorenz Hart’s autobiographically anguished lyrics, to Jerry Herman’s bright optimism, Stephen Sondheim’s wry irony, Kander & Ebb’s dark world and George Michael’s and Rufus Wainwright’s modern sensibility, My Queer Valentine shines a spotlight on those who skirt away from the mainstream in the often complex and dubious areas of sexuality, gender and the personal stories that define their lives.
