Jim Parsons ... From "The Big Bang Theory" to "The Boys in the Band"

[left-of-center2012]

A great interview with Jim Parsons regarding his performing in the Broadway show,
“The Boys in the Band”.

It’s Parsons’s third time on Broadway; his role as Tommy in The Normal Heart garnered a Drama Desk Award nomination (for stage) and an Emmy nomination for his reprisal in the film version of it.
He also appeared in a 2012 revival of Mary Chase's Harvey as Elwood P. Dowd.
There are also four primetime Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe to his name, and earlier this month, GLAAD honored him with the Stephen F. Kolzack Award,
which is given to an out LGBT entertainer or media personality for their work toward eliminating homophobia.

1. Thank You, it's so refreshing to read some lighter LGBT related news lately.

God I wish attendance at the likes was a possibility for me.

2. This play was the first

story I ever read that had gay characters. I would so love to see this revival!
