Creative Freedom, Community, and Big Broadway Dreams with LaQuet Sharnell   Episode #160   Welcome back to The Creative Soulpreneur Podcast! In this episode, Nick Demos sits down with the inspiring LaQuet Sharnell for a heartfelt and energizing conversation about the winding, often unpredictable journey of the creative artist—and what it truly means to build a life rooted in authenticity, fearlessness, and community. LaQuet shares her evolution from an introspective, joke-telling five-year-old to a Broadway performer and fearless educator, opening up about the pivotal moments, teachers, and experiences that have shaped her as an artist, a coach, and a human. Tune in as she and Nick delve into the importance of letting your work (and life) marinate, the value of embracing both the triumphs and struggles, and how powerful community can be—both on and off the stage. You'll also hear LaQuet discuss how stepping away from home, confronting her truths, and redefining success ultimately led her to create Fearless Young Artists Studios and write her upcoming book and plays. This episode is filled with wisdom, laughter, vulnerability, and the kind of soul-stirring real talk every creative entrepreneur needs to hear. So settle in for an episode as uplifting and genuine as it is practical—and get ready to rediscover your own fearless creative journey!   Key Takeaways:

I was recently invited on the podcast Movies That Made Us Gay which features the dynamic co-hosts Peter and Scott. You can listen to the rest of the conversation on their podcast! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBm_LW3_23w&t=5333s“It's the witch from next door!” We take a trip to the theater to discuss the iconic filmed production of Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, which was recorded for PBS American Playhouse in 1989. In one of our first opportunities to discuss Sondheim and Broadway on the podcast, we are joined by Andrew Rimby from the Ivory Tower Boiler Room. Many people hold the music from Into the Woods dear, and we are fortunate that its original cast was recorded in the spring of 1989. This Fractured Fairy Tales narrative revolves around a childless baker and his wife, who embark on a quest to start a family after a witch places a curse on them. Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, and a Rapunzel origin story are interwoven throughout the story. Bernadette Peters embodies the Witch with unparalleled talent, delivering a captivating performance in every moment. Joanna Gleason, in her Tony Award-winning role portrays the Baker's Wife with incredible grace and depth. Topics discussed include the 1988 Tony Awards, Rob Marshell's 2014 adaptation, and what Bravo Housewife would make the perfect witch. Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts!www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgayFacebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay

In this episode Albert Evans and I explore the origins of Broadway's “Nostalgia Craze of the 1970s” — where it came from, and what artistic, social and cultural forces came together to spark this unlikely phenomenon.  We trace its origins in the counterculture youth rebellion of the 1960s, the rediscovery of films from the 1930s and 40s on television, and the popularization of gay camp culture via the off-off Broadway mega hit DAMES AT SEA.  All of this would lead to the triumphant 1971 Broadway revival of NO, NO, NANETTE — the Vincent Youmans/Irving Ceasar/Otto Harbach musical comedy that has introduced the songs “Tea For Two” and “I Want To Be Happy” way back in the Roaring 20s. With a heavily retooled book, sparkling new orchestrations and arrangements, and a snazzy, art deco-inspired set and costume design, this reincarnation of No, No, Nanette was billed as “the new 1925 musical”.  And it became a smash hit, running 861 performances, and winning 4 Tony Awards for Choreography, Costume Design, and for two of its stars, Helen Gallagher, and another vintage movie star, comedian Patsy Kelly (there was no "Best Revival category then). And, after years of it being almost entirely absent from Broadway — Nanette brought tap dancing back into fashion in a major way. Most significantly, Nanette fanned a mania for everything and anything that recalled the music, style, and glamour of the 20s, 30s and 40s. The press dubbed this mania “The Nostalgia Craze” as it quickly spread into every aspect of American life.

Creative Courage: Overcoming Fear and Embracing Vulnerability with Mauricio Pita   Episode #159   Welcome back to The Creative Soulpreneur! In today's episode, Nick is thrilled to introduce a truly inspiring guest, Mauricio, a talented filmmaker with whom he's shares an intrinsic connection that transcends the typical creative bond. Mauricio and Nick first crossed paths on the film festival circuit, and we've been kindred spirits ever since. In this conversation, Mauricio opens up about his journey from growing up in Venezuela to making waves in the film industry here in the U.S. He shares the challenges he faced as a young, imaginative boy seeking solace in his creativity amidst bullying and isolation and how these experiences helped shape his path as an artist. We dig into the process of pursuing an artistic career, embracing vulnerability, and navigating the ups and downs of being a queer creator. Mauricio's journey is a testament to resilience and the power of staying true to one's vision, and he's here to inspire you to take that leap, follow your creative dreams, and maybe even make your very own film. So, listen in for a truly heartfelt and fascinating conversation with Mauricio. Let's get started!   Key Takeways:   Imagination as Superpower: Mauricio grew up with a rich imagination, often role-playing and diving into creative worlds. This imaginative ability became a cornerstone of his artistic endeavors, showcasing the potential of turning perceived isolation into a creative superpower.   Resilience and Determination: The path to pursuing one's passion is not always smooth. Mauricio's determination to succeed in the arts, despite the challenges he faced as an immigrant and a queer individual, serves as a powerful reminder that perseverance and belief in one's vision can overcome obstacles.   Authentic Storytelling: Transitioning from devised theater to film, Mauricio emphasizes the importance of telling personal and authentic stories. His film "Safe Word" explores themes of identity and self-acceptance, resonating with audiences and demonstrating the impact of genuine storytelling.   Find Mauricio on: Instagram  Watch Safe Word on: HereTV Google Safe Word on: Youtube- Stashed Shorts     Story Telling Guide!!!   Mauricio Pita is an award-winning actorand producerbased inWashington, DC.

“It's the witch from next door!” We take a trip to the theater to discuss the iconic filmed production of Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, which was recorded for PBS American Playhouse in 1989. In one of our first opportunities to discuss Sondheim and Broadway on the podcast, we are joined by Andrew Rimby from the Ivory Tower Boiler Room. Many people hold the music from Into the Woods dear, and we are fortunate that its original cast was recorded in the spring of 1989. This Fractured Fairy Tales narrative revolves around a childless baker and his wife, who embark on a quest to start a family after a witch places a curse on them. Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, and a Rapunzel origin story are interwoven throughout the story. Bernadette Peters embodies the Witch with unparalleled talent, delivering a captivating performance in every moment. Joanna Gleason, in her Tony Award-winning role portrays the Baker's Wife with incredible grace and depth. Topics discussed include the 1988 Tony Awards, Rob Marshell's 2014 adaptation, and what Bravo Housewife would make the perfect witch.  Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna
