Choreography, Drag, and Diversity: A Conversation with Isidro

What if the simple act of watching a dance show could ignite a passion that leads to a career on London's West End? On this episode of Kevjet, join me as I chat with the multi-talented Isidro, a choreographer and drag artist whose journey from avid TV viewer to professional dancer is nothing short of magical. Isi recounts his early days, influenced by Britain's Got Talent and America's Best Dance Crew, and how his artistic family, split between the UK and Spain, played a crucial role in his development. We’ll also reflect on his first West End role with Priscilla the Party and the impactful themes of mental health and loneliness addressed in his early choreography.
Navigating the artistic industry is no easy feat, but Isi breaks down the essentials of networking, finding the right roles, and securing agents. We touch on his exciting aspirations—imagine Isi as a main monster in a horror film or dancing alongside FKA Twigs or Lady Gaga! Plus, get insights into the intriguing short horror film "What I'm Hiding From You," directed by Connor Devlin Powell, which tackles the issue of neurodivergent masking. Isi also shares his favorites from drag shows like Slay Station, celebrating the vibrant diversity within the arts.
Racism, subtle and overt, remains a pervasive issue in both the workplace and everyday life. We dive into the consequences of far-right extremism in the UK, sparked by a tragic incident in Sunderland, and the role media plays in racial biases. Personal anecdotes reveal the challenges faced due to preconceived notions and ingrained biases, from job applications to societal expectations. Finally, delve into a candid Q&A with Isidro, where he opens up about his favorite age, hidden talents, and what truly motivates him. This heartfelt conversation challenges conventional notions of masculinity and encourages finding joy in the most unconventional places.
