Levi Kreis brought some southern sensibility to this Sunday’s Tony Awards when he won for featured actor in a musical for his portrayal of rocker Jerry Lee Lewis in “Million Dollar Quartet.”
We interviewed Levi as he had just moved to Chicago to perform in the trial run of “Million Dollar Quartet” the musical that won him the Tony. Congratulations!

Congrats Levi!
Hi guys!
Well for some reason in the last week your podcast has manage to turn me into an 80’s latin schoolgirl waiting for the next Menudo song; so it’s easy and inviting to send you some love from Montreal.
Levi Kreis, is really adorable and he has a compelling voice. I love to see how his idea of religion and relationships has evolved to be as far as possible as a fundamentalist conception of God’s laws.
I wonder if receiving the label of openly gay musician is not a double sided blade, for the good and for the bad. I think for youngsters and people who are still in the closet is great to have such an adorable and successful role model. On the other hand the label can be limiting. I think I would like to think of people like Levi as a talented artist that happens to be gay. His charisma, talent and music feel universal in the sense that the can be appreciated by any person, regardless of gender and sexuality.
On another topic, I found the conversation about open and close relationships very different. I think there’s no good answer, but to take the one thats works better for you and your partner. But still I would be great to have you discuss it more thoroughly on the show.
Keep up the good work guys!
