Motus Theater’s TRANSformative Stories features transgender and non-binary leaders sharing powerful, autobiographical monologues about their hopes, dreams, and experiences navigating oppression and liberation. Featuring personal stories by Ruby Lopez (she/her), Raye Watson (they/them), and David Breña (he/him), accompanied by live musical underscoring from beloved Colorado violinist Anthony Salvo.

Doors open for tea and cookies reception at 6:30p.m. followed by a 7p.m. performance of Motus Theater's TRANSformative Stories monologues for the Boulder Library’s Civic Dialogue series. In this special performance, transgender and nonbinary leaders perform artfully crafted personal stories about their hopes, dreams, and experiences of negotiating oppression and liberation, with live musical underscore. Colorado’s most diverse improv troupe, Motus Playback Theater, will then support the audience to reflect together on gender and reenact reflections on the spot. Regardless of your ideas about legislation focused on transgender & nonbinary people, come together for tea, cookies, and community to hear stories from your transgender & nonbinary neighbors so we all know more about the people impacted by anti-transgender legislation.
