"In a world where queerness is still very much under attack by government and educational institutions, this piece was chosen as a vehicle to connect queer stories past, present, and future, and bring together the LGBTQ+ community across generations to continue to speak out and act up for queer lives and queer futures," says BAE Executive Director Ben Houghton.

Issac Byrne (The Other Mozart) is directing, leading a creative team that includes stage manager Thomas Dieter, music director David Baldwin, lighting designer Zach Pizza, sound designer Vrialto, graphic designer Sarah Faye Beard, production assistant Trevor Markanovic, and assistant director Haley Rice. Casting is by Tessa Faye Talent.

On the production team are a group of interns led by BAE and The Center, including Jermy Quiroz, Alastair Feliciano, Irati Castaneda, Nicole Ruiz, AJ Sinclair, Bo de La Rosa, Alley Long, Gabriela Vivanco, and Artie Brown.

The reading is made possible through the support of Straighten Your Crown Productions and SoEpitome. All proceeds will support internship programs for queer and trans youth in New York City and in rural communities around the United States.
