Review: ‘Sleuth’ is a riveting tête-à-tête of toxic male dynamics at Theatre Three

Snow White, and while you’re mileage may vary on the studio’s CGI-heavy remakes, we can think of at least one (handsome!) reason to get excited for this future blockbuster.The Brothers Grimm fairytale of Snow White is one that’s been told many of times before—most famously in Disney’s seminal animated masterpiece from 1937—following the titular princess after she’s banished to a magical forest by her wicked stepmother, the Queen.Subscribe to our newsletter for your front-row seat to all things entertainment with a sprinkle of everything else queer.The upcoming version (which boasts the icon Greta Gerwig as one of its screenwriters!) sees West Side Story‘s Rachel Zegler starring as Snow, with Wonder Woman Gal Gadot as the evil queen, and a bunch of VFX artists working overtime to create the seven dwarves.But it will also introduce audiences to a new character written specifically for the movie—presumably Snow’s love interest—named Jonathan, played by Tony Award-winning actor Andrew Burnap.And the good news? Burnap’s part of the family!A post shared by andrew burnap (@atburnap)The 33-year-old stage and screen actor had his biggest breakthrough in the acclaimed The Inheritance, Matthew López’s (pre-Red, White & Royal Blue) play about the lives of gay men in contemporary New York City grappling with what it means to be part of the LGBTQ+ generation after the AIDS crisis.Though an ensemble piece, Burnap’s committed, fearless performance as Toby Darling earned him the Tony Award for Best Actor In A Play in 2020 after the show transferred to Broadway.It was during the The Inheritance‘s successful run that the actor began to speak more openly about his sexuality, revealing that working on the play gave him “permission” to understand his fluidity:“I very much, before this play, identified as a straight man,” Burnap shared with Glamour UK in 2020.
