I found Bonnie’s take on the musical refreshing
She said it tells much the same LGBTQ+ story as the original film
and wondered how today’s audiences might feel walking out of the theatre
She talked about how LGBTQ+ people in Thailand have more legal protection and more of a voice now
I liked how she connected those changes to the warmth people might take home from the show
Hearing her talk about it, I got the sense she’d given the subject a lot of thought
