Anne, Jess, and Milo discuss the Disney+ Original Encore! A show where adults come together to re-stage the musicals they performed in high school. This leads to a broader discussion of Disney’s desire to please both LGBTQ+ people and conservative moms, the importance theater can play in young people’s lives, a crossover between Annie and Annie Get Your Gun, and so much more. Speaking of Annie’s, our very own Anne would like to apologize for being horrendous with names. Belle is played by Desiree, not Destiny on the Beauty and the Beast episode, and the Oklahoma! Character is named Will Parker, not Will Turner. Check out Emily Todd VanDerWerff’s article on Elsa being accidentally queer coded here: https://bit.ly/2tvHLeh
