Here’s a teaser of what the star told DIVA…
On the power of LGBTQIA stories: “Queer representation in the mainstream takes away the mystery, which then takes away the ignorance”
On how she relates to Wicked’s Elphaba: “I can relate to the desire to stand up for yourself and not take any nonsense.”
On the sapphic show Harlots: “It’s not neat and pretty. It’s what real queer relationships are like.”
