I'm so happy with this glowing review in the “El Economista.” By Ricardo Quiroga.

“But, without a doubt, the one who took away the night, who sympathized with the audience, was the master of ceremonies Glauco Araujo, an actor and dancer born in Brazil, but residing in the United States, who made an effort to connect with the public speaking a few words in Spanish, joking, greeting the people who were stationed on the roofs adjacent to the Alhóndiga Esplanade. And people responded to him, made fun of him, fed his jokes with laughter and shouts.”​​

The wonderful review in the “Proceso newspaper” by Carmen Pizano. 

“Glauco Araujo was the host of the event, he offered a detailed explanation of the history and evolution of the industries with a touch of mischief and good interaction with the public, a key fusion to give rise to the interpretation of the selected pieces.”

The BISTRO AWARDS, the oldest award of its kind in the industry, celebrates cabaret, jazz and comedy artists. The Bistro Awards was established by Bob Harrington in 1985 in his “Bistro Bits” column in Backstage, which was a trade weekly under the editorship of Sherry Eaker at the time.  
 
This year the ceremony was hosted by Scott F. Manson and myself. It was a tremendous honor to be part of The Bistro Awards team this year. And, it was certainly humbling and thrilling for me to think that I was standing on the same stage as some of the past honorees, like Eartha Kitt, Liza Minnelli, Dionne Warwick and Carol Channing, among many other legends. ​​

I’ve gotten “married again” in yet another film! The movie is called “The Daughter of the Bride” and it opened in theaters last Friday. This romantic comedy tells the story of Diane, a mature woman played by Marcia Gay Harden, who announces to her daughter that she’s engaged to a mystery man — and everyone’s life gets turned upside down in this entertaining rom-com. What a fun movie and a great experience for me!

Published August to November 2022

“How Not to Date While Trans” explores the intrigue, as well as the many challenges, of the dating life of a black trans woman. In this dark comedy, we live through the events and experiences of the main character, portrayed by superstar Nyala Moon as Andie, trying to navigate the roller-coaster ride of a trans woman dating on the complex and comical journey of mating and dating. It was great being part of this unique and wonderful break-through film. It is now screening all over the world and being well-received by the critics. I feel so honored to being part of such an important film.

Playing Vidal in the film “A Bellevue Love Story” was such an amazing ride. As a dancer myself, like Vidal, it was an intense experience expressing an art form that requires practicing hours in front of mirrors, to achieve what sometimes felt like an unattainable ideal. Thank you to our amazing director, Michael Wolfe,  who crafted all the characters in this film with such impeccable creative detail, and to all my amazing fellow actors and crew. What a team!
