Sewers of Paris: I Have Been Looking for the Pirate King (Ep 488 - Shakespeare/Johnnie McNamara Walker)
Added 2024-10-03 21:19:21 +0000 UTCMy guest this week on the Sewers of Paris podcast is Johnnie McNamara Walker, whose solo shows The Heterosexuals and Redheaded Stepchild led to him being described as a comic genius by The Irish Times. Johnnie spent a lot of his youth doing everything he could to hide the queer kid trying to break free — while also finding himself drawn irresistibly to singing, dancing, and wearing as many wigs as he could. Now, he’s not only broken free from that turmoil, but it’s part of what fuels an artistic project that he says isn’t so much a planned career as an all-consuming compulsion.
