Wendy Stuart will be hosting TriVersity Talk! this Wednesday at 7 PM ET with featured guest Jerico DeAngelo.
TriVersity Talk! is a weekly web series with featured guests discussing their lives, activism and pressing issues in the LGBTQ Community. With TriVersity Talk!, the goal is to laugh and learn.
TriVersity Talk! Is part of TriVersity’s ICARE Initiative. ICARE stands for Increasing Community Awareness through Relevant Education. ICARE Programs are generously funded by The Greater Pike Community Foundation.
Jerico DeAngelo is a songwriter with Grammy-nominated credits, a composer, and a multimedia performance artist known for his theatrical presence and myth-infused storytelling. Blending rock, cinematic electronica, and neo-classical influences, his work explores love, longing, and transformation through music, ritual, and visual art. His bold alter-persona Jerico of the Angels drew international attention, with features on CNN, BBC, Reuters, and cover stories in The New
York Times and Daily News.
A lifelong composer who copyrighted his first song at age eleven, Jerico trained in opera, Renaissance art song, and multiple instruments before forging a genre-defying solo career. His albums—Into Infinity, Flow Affair, SBLMNL MPCT, Undead A-Go-Go, and Tame the Wind—
merge sound, theater, and symbolism into immersive experiences. He is currently composing Masque, a rock musical inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of the Red Death, which recently premiered in a staged reading sponsored by The Shakespeare Forum in New York City.
Masque: A Musical Revel is a macabre rock comedy set at a Halloween night cabaret inside an underground bunker during a global plague. The wealthy host, Prosper Prince, stages the performance to distract his guests — but real tension erupts because his daughter insisted on bringing her secret fiancé, a trans man her father despises, into the bunker.*
Masque is a social commentary on the global rise of transphobia. Through horror, humor, masks, and fluid casting, the show explores fear of the “other,” inviting audiences to look beyond the masks that we all wear and question why difference feels so threatening.
