Kit Williamson Says His New Queer TV Comedy ‘Unconventional‘ Isn’t About Politics, but ‘Unfortunately Our Lives Have Been Politicized’: ‘I’m Not Going to Quiet Down’
Kit Williamson talks about his new queer TV comedy 'Unconventional' and recalls being told by a former talent manager to stay in the closet.
Premiering on LGBTQ streaming platform Revry on Feb. 11, the TV comedy series stars Williamson as Noah, a queer millennial questioning the future of his 10-year marriage to his husband Dan (James Bland). “I think we’re in a really interesting inflection point where I think we’re being told to quiet down, and I actually think that the opposite approach is what is needed,” Williamson says, alluding to the Trump administration’s anti-LGBTQ policies and directives. Also making appearances are Beau Bridges, Willam (“RuPaul’s Drag Race”), Jenna Ushkowitz (“Glee”), Tuc Watkins (“Uncoupled”), Dana Wheeler-Nicholson (“Friday Night Lights”), James Urbaniak (“Difficult People”), Constantine Rousouli (off-Broadway’s “Titanique”), Laith Ashley (“Pose”) and Miranda Bailey (“Diary of a Teenage Girl”).
