From groundbreaking new work from across America's stages to unpublished work by new voices these plays address themes such as gender identity and expression to racial and religious attitudes toward love and sex. <p/>Edited by Lindsey Mantoan Angela Farr Schiller and Leanna Keyes the plays selected explicitly call for trans characters as central protagonists in order to promote opportunities for trans performers making this an original and necessary publication for both practical use and academic study. <p/><i><b>Sagittarius Ponderosa</b></i><b> by MJ Kaufman</b> <p/><i><b>The Betterment Society </b></i><b>by Mashuq Mushtaq Deen</b> <p/><i><b>how to clean your room</b></i><b> by j. chavez</b> <p/><b><i>She He Me</i> by </b><b>Raphaël Amahl Khouri</b> <p/><b><i>The Devils Between Us</i> by </b><b>Sharifa Yasmin</b> <p/><b><i>Doctor Voynich and Her Children</i> by Leanna Keyes</b> <p/><b><i>Firebird Tattoo </i>by Ty Defoe</b> <p/><i><b>Crooked Parts </b></i><b>by Azure Osborne-Lee </b></p>
