The Wright stuff
dallasvoice.comRufus Wainwright gets intimate for Dallas RICH LOPEZ | Staff writerrich@dallasvoice.com With an impressive discography, a few Judy Garland homages and even an opera recently staged in Europe, Rufus Wainwright’s career has a certain quietness to it.
He’s become a gay icon without the flash of Elton or the pizzazz of Gaga. The proof and his signature elegance will be seen Wednesday night, Sept.
14, when his Unfollow the Rules tour stops in Dallas at the historic Majestic Theatre. The tour supports Wainwright’s 2020 album of the same name that was released at the height of the pandemic.
This year alone, he’s released Rufus does Judy at Capitol Studios; his queer-centric opera Hadrian premiered in Spain, and he has three more releases scheduled for 2022.
