It's Big and it's Gay

More London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival frolics, this time with The Big Gay Musical.


As you'd expect, this film is as camp as a boy scout convention. The story revolves around an off-Broadway production (all oiled bodies and sub-Pink Narcissus colour schemes), and the off-stage lives of some of the cast.


There are two principal characters:


But in true Orwellian fashion, one of them is more principal than the other (I speak of the lovely Daniel Robinson, seen above to the right).


There's a rather promising chorus but they are used disappointingly little (they evoke strongly the drag queens from Torch Song Trilogy. And that's a big compliment).


And there's a modest role for comedian Steve Hayes. Or perhaps I should have written immodest, since he's playing God:


Steve was part of the delightful ensemble in delightful gay semi-musical Trick, one of my all-time favourite gay films.

But did I mention this was hunky Daniel Robinson's film?:


It also features a cameo from gay porn "star" Brent Corrigan -- although you'll see rather more of him in this next photo than you will in this surprisingly chaste film:


Er... did I mention it was Daniel Robinson's film...?:


Bugger it -- lost my thread completely.

Er... The Big Gay Musical is a low-budget, jolly, camp-as-Christmas, gay musical.

Yeah, I think that about sums it up.
