Frank DiLella’s theater picks: ‘My Son’s A Queer (But What Can You Do?),’ ‘House of Life’ and more

With the many entertainment choices New York City has to offer, it can be difficult to decide what to see. Look no further. “On Stage” host Frank DiLella has curated a list of must-see shows this week, guiding you to the best of Broadway, off-Broadway and beyond. 

“My Son’s A Queer (But What Can You Do?)”

Social media sensation Rob Madge has brought their award-winning solo show “My Son’s a Queer (But What Can You Do?)” to New York City Center. In the heartfelt production, Rob shares childhood memories of staging musicals in their living room.

“I write a show about my childhood in lockdown. Because I used to put on lot of shows in my living room —as I’m sure a lot of people in theater probably did. And I found a lot of home videos documenting these living room shows, and they’re very outrageous and silly,” said Madge.

“And I would share them online, and people online would find them all very funny and silly. But a lot of people would also say how amazing it was that my parents were really supportive of my, let’s say, flamboyance as a kid,” they added.

The show runs through June 15. For tickets, visit .

“House of Life”

Next up is the international cabaret experience “House of Life.” Described as “part sermon, part party,” the show promises theatergoers a spiritual and celebratory journey.

“House of Life” plays 3 Dollar Bill in Brooklyn on June 20 and WARA – home of BATSU! – on June 22.

“Eurydice”

At The Pershing Square Signature Center, don’t miss Sarah Ruhl’s “Eurydice,” starring “Stranger Things” actress Maya Hawke.

“This play has such depth to it that every day I can’t wait to do it again,” Hawke said. “There’s just more and more territory to explore and understand. I feel like I still learn about the play every time I do it.”
