This week ABC's 8-part miniseries "When We Rise" (which chronicles the LGBT rights movement) by Dustin Lance Black starred young Broadway stars Austin McKenzie (Melchior Gabor in Deaf West's Spring Awakening) as young Cleve Jones and Emily Skeggs (Medium Alison in Fun Home) as young Roma Guy, as well as Bway veteran Mary-Louise Parker as the older Roma Guy. Did anyone else catch the series?
I thought the young actors in particular did Broadway proud. I would love to see Jonathan Majors (who played the young Ken Jones) on Broadway someday as well..
There's a thread about the show on the off topic page, so you can catch up so that thoughts there.
