A.I. EP. 95: “Fosse, Fosse, Fosse!” - The Birdcage 25th Anniversary
The hilarious 1996 La Cage aux Folles adaptation, The Birdcage, is celebrating it’s 25th anniversary! To commemorate this big occasion we devoted an entire episode to it!
We brought back to the podcast Broadway/film/TV actor Benny Elledge and making his AI debut fellow NYC actor/UMD alumn Brian Skellenger. It was fun to reminisce about our old college days and break down this comedic classic.
We end this episode with a fun Starting 5 game and our Patrons get to hear our Top 5 LGBTQ+ Films Draft.
Enjoy!
