🎬 #Drag #History | Forty years ago, the Broadway version of #HarverFierstein's "Torch Song Trilogy" won the #TonyAward for Best Play (he wrote it) and Best Leading Actor.

Thirty-five years ago, Fierstein starred in the film adaptation, directed by #PaulBogart. The movie co-starred #AnneBancroft and #MatthewBroderick.

▶️ Would it be illegal for #TheBelcourt in #Nashville to screen "Torch Song" now with a person under 18 in the audience? #Drag Ban #movies #gay https://youtu.be/rdmPoTTbigw
