And when was JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR an "accurate" portrayal of Jesus, anyway? Unless you believe Jesus was a hippy who could hit ridiculously high notes.

HEDWIG: "The road is my home. In reflecting upon the people whom I have come upon in my travels, I cannot help but think of the people who have come upon me."
I didn't see MY LIFE WITH ALBERINE anywhere on this thread yet. The musical hinted at Marcel Proust possibly being gay (although written for a woman onstage, Albertine was based upon a male lover of Proust's), and featured lesbianism. The character of Mlle. Lea (Emily Skinner) was a lesbian performer in a casino where lesbians frequented, and there were two other characters that were either gay or bi-sexual (played by Brooke Sunny Moriber and Caroline MacMahon). Also, the sexuality of Albertine (Kelli O'Hara) is called into question quite often. In the song "I Need Me A Girl", which she performs for laughs at the lesbian casino, she insinuates that she slept with a woman, and in "Sometimes", Mlle. Lea, Rosamonde, and Andree sing about sexual activities that they perform with Albertine. The original cast album is available.
