Matthew Lopez: RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE, LGBTQIA+ Representation, and Sharing Your Story
Jared Milrad sits down with Tony Award-winning writer/director Matthew Lopez about his directorial debut, RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE, which tells the story of a transatlantic romance that develops between the son of an American President and Britain's prince. Matthew opens up about his filmmaking process for RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE (which is based on the novel of the same name by Casey McQuiston); the importance of LGBTQIA+ storytelling and diverse representation onscreen, and the global impact of the film. Matthew also talks about his upbringing as a self-described "gay Puerto Rican from the Florida panhandle with New York roots," finding his voice as a writer, and his Tony Award-winning play, THE INHERITANCE.
