What is the Tranny Roadshow? It is...

"...an edgy celebration of gender variant artists." Bay Area Reporter

"...an intelligently diverse vision of identity ... demonstrate(s) just how rewarding and fun the exploration of selfhood can be." Emily Brochin, Philadelphia Weekly

“…brilliantly dynamic … dissecting and detailing the multitudes of ways gender can unfold” Michael Munson, Queer Life News

“…on the front lines of a war of sexual identity, a liberating fight that benefits even the straightest of the straight.
Unlike most battlegrounds, however, this one can be a fun eye-opener…”
Keith Axline, The San Francisco Bay Guardian

"...a terrific performance ... moving, fascinating, and often hilarious" West Village Voice

"revved-up performance art cabaret" ­ Portland Mercury

What are people saying about the Tranny Roadshow?

“You will laugh. You may dance. And hopefully ... you will leave with a more positive understanding of what it is to be transgendered today.” Tammy Chamberland, Lewiston Sun Journal

"Though many theatrical performances boast about being one of a kind, the Tranny Roadshow truly fits the bill." Erin Frustaci, Ft. Collins Now

"Tackling transgender and queer issue results in either tiresome discourse or explosive humanistic art. Kelly Shortandqueer and Jamez Terry, nationally recognized zine writer and archivist, are on the latter tip with their roving Tranny Roadshow, a beehive of jugglers, flickering lights, stomp and spoken-word locked on the nationwide DIY circuit. On a quest to educate and entertain "where the expression of gender and the expression of self are inseparable," each stop is venue-specific, steeped in audience interaction and hell-bent on inciting laughter and thought equally." Eric Weddle, The Independent

“The Tranny Roadshow slaps you upside the head... Gently.” Carole Fischer, Indiana Daily Student
