I was raised in a small town with a small mind. Growing up, we were short on money and rich in fear and dysfunction. 25 years into a 30-year marriage, I came out as queer. In 2017, I started having a vision of this performance. The vision was so vivid. This night has been a life's work in progress. You will be seeing it for the first time, raw and unfiltered.
