Interstate: A New Musical
The musical, based on the real-life experiences of a queer, Asian American band’s first cross-country tour, follows the lives of the band members, a lesbian singer-songwriter, a FTM (female-to-male) transgender spoken word artist, and a young transgender queer female assigned at birth teenager, as they tour over 40 states. The grant will help fund a workshop reading, casting of diverse Asian American people, rehearsals and production. The project will include community, talkback sessions during the workshop, and partnership with local community groups.
