Today's guest is Matthew Koon, a multi-hyphenate millenial performer and writer. Matthew was the first Chinese actor to play Billy Elliot in the West End in March 2006, and he recently completed over eight years as first soloist with Northern Ballet. We talk about East Asian and queer representation in ballet, film and theatre, and how queer identities can intersect and evolve through our art. #chinese #eastasian #lgbtq #queer #musicals #ballet #billyelliot #sandrao #drewmconie #northernballet #merlin #greatestday
