Why you should celebrate pride with a musical about GenderCannibalism?

washingtonblade.com:

Because when I came out as trans my aunt told me it was because I ate my twin in the womb…and that’s what the show is about Because…remember that time when you decided to dress like exactly like your older sister; or you stole your mothers’ makeup or your brother’s tie; or you decided to dress up like Katherine Hepburn for halloween when you were (i dunno) 10; or you started to look eerily like your lover…..that’s all gender cannibalism “Because because because because because….” because if you know that song this was made for you…and if you don’t…it’s okay, we’ll work on it Because you can probably find a cute date at the show irl instead of just swiping in your phone…think of theater as an in person dating app without as much drunkenness as the bar Because maybe that cute date is me Because you can sing along to music written by a bunch of queers from Philly and D.C. Because we are all so hungry and so so thirsty Because I guarantee you will leave feeling fed Because cannibalism puns are tasty Because it’s a comedy Because there are pay-what-you-can tickets Because it plays all of June Because we are consuming gender all the time but rarely watching what and how we eat it Because it’s an anti-assimilationist endeavor: the corporations can’t co-opt “gender cannibalism” for pride month (but there is merchandise available at the show…) Because it’s only 75 minutes Because I dance around in tighty whities with socks on my hands Because there is a free clothing swap and treats in the gallery next to the show Because why not? Because you will be cast as my Mother, and that’s the role of a lifetime (or at least my lifetime) Because you won’t know what will happen; you can’t pause or rewind the show; you will be taking a risk; you will find it’s more than just entertainment; you will feel me talking right to you Because I’ve been writing this show for 34 years and am finally ready to share it with you Because I’ll be in the lobby afterwards to say hi, and receive hugs,
