"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, lighting designer Zach Pizza, and sound designer Vrialto. 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.
