NEW in my collection of ten minute plays for the classroom or drama department.
The Trans-G Kid
I was inspired recently, watching celebrity transgender headlines, to add to my collection of ten minute plays for the classroom. The media has put a ‘better late than never’ and much needed spotlight on the teenagers who are seeking their ‘true selves’. In the process, these teens have been living in fear, confusion and depression, having to hide their feelings. Alone, with a huge secret, many of them look to suicide as a permanent solution to end their pain and uncertainty. The suicide statistics in the teen transgender community is staggering.
The Trans-G Kid was born. My short plays for the classroom cover teen issues in real time. Bullying, cutting, running away, teen dating violence, suicide, drugs, and broken families. If my play opens a single dialogue between student and teacher or child and parent I will consider myself a success!
Synopsis: Surrounded by bullies at school who call him a freak, isolated because of his secret, Kyler, born in the wrong body, is at a dead-end. Life is just too painful to bear another day. Desperate to end it all, he reaches out to his mother in a final attempt to find someone who might understand him.
