He's an actor, singer, writer, a bon vivant with boundless energy. He's the Tony Award-winning Alan Cumming!
It’s impossible to typecast him. From performing Macbeth to covering Miley Cyrus, to starring on network television by way of "The Good Wife" to populating public television as the host of GBH's own "MASTERPIECE Mystery." And now he’s the saucy star of streaming on Peacock, hosting and producing the reality TV series “The Traitors.” However, he is not a traitor to his demographic. At age 59, Cumming is a font of wisdom when it comes to America’s obsession with the fountain of youth, breaking down how abstract and absurd ageism is in his cabaret show, “Alan Cumming is Not Acting His Age.”
Today on The Culture Show, Cumming joins host Jared Bowen to talk about it all.
From there, The Culture Show contributor Lisa Simmons returns to the GBH Studios to discuss the night James Brown saved Boston shortly after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.
It's all on The Culture Show—listen to the full episode above!
