Dear Texas,
Play Excerpts
Synopsis
Dear Texas, captures the experience of being a transgender person, gender transition, and the courage it takes to fight for personal authenticity. The play, based on hours of interviews, takes us through the raw realities of breaking past gender norms, discovering body and mind alignment, and the human drive to be seen by others as we see ourselves.
Culminating in a courtroom scene (based on an actual case which took place in Texas), what unravels is a discrimination case cloaked in a custody battle. While tragedy strikes, the audience is ultimately reassured by the strength rising up from the transgender community who stand united in stark counterpoint to the echoes of a dying past.
