I'm not a member of the LGBT (and whatever other letters should be added) community, but this show touches my heart. I lived in NYC in the late 70s and early 80s. I worked Broadway and NYC Ballet and a soap at CBS. But I never brushed shoulders with the sub-culture Pose depicts. I wish I'd known. The culture may be foreign to me, but the simple, human dignity and pain make this show universal and timeless. Not to mention I've rarely seen an ensemble of more gifted actors. Pose is a sparkling, heart-breaking, terribly human, beautifully tragic gem. Well done and thank you for creating it.
