He is the author of Love Is Love Is Love: Broadway Musicals and LGBTQ Politics, 2010-2020, Sondheim and Wheeler’s Sweeney Todd, and the essay “Infelicities”. His major research area is theatrical discourse surrounding sexuality and violence, and he writes primarily about images of violent masculinity in contemporary culture.
