We are so pleased to welcome Cissy, a collection of three powerful, intensely relevant plays on gender and young LGBTQ+ folk by the acclaimed playwright Dave Deveau.
In Nelly Boy, an unknown man sits in a nondescript room trying to discover how Nelly came to be running naked along the side of a six-lane highway. My Funny Valentine examines the 2008 murder of fourteen-year-old Lawrence Laetitia King, who’d asked Brandon McInerney to be their valentine. Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls is the story of nine-year-old Fin, a trans boy whose love for the circus infuses the energy of the play, as Fin’s family works to understand and adjust to his gender identity.
