Must see
Emily Boyajian presents “Transition: A Story of Two Trans People Becoming Themselves,” a story through dialogue, singing, an 11-piece string and brass band and spoken word about the anxious and somber, yet joyful and jubilant, journeys of two trans people transitioning toward their true selves. Their anxiety over declaring and embracing their trans identities comes as they face hostility from people and institutions, including the state, who do not understand them and actively seek to erase their existence. Guaranteed tearjerker.
Presented by Emily Boyajian at Mixed Blood Theater; 8:30 p.m. Aug. 5, 7 p.m. Aug. 7, 5:30 p.m. Aug. 8, 4 p.m. Aug. 10
