** WORLD PREMIERE ROCK MUSICAL **
TRANS AM explores the most complex and personal parts of the human experience, through the lens of Lisa Stephen Friday. With stories and songs, Lisa shares her own trans journey as a means of understanding our common human desire for self-actualization and respect while calling out the absurdity of a world obsessed with other-ness. An irreverent new one-woman autobiography, TRANS AM features the music of cult-favorite NYC glam rock band Lisa Jackson & Girl Friday and is directed by Broadway’s Fred Berman.
Broadway World Review
“TRANS AM is a powerful, honest portrayal of a fascinating and gifted woman, and brings a beautiful blend of storytelling and performance to the stage (and our screens).”
MD Theatre Guide Review
“The show is a gorgeous memoir…Friday’s telling of her own life is intimate, hilarious, sexy, sometimes sad, but always incredibly engaging.”
DC Metro Theatre Arts Review
“Friday, along with director Fred Berman, brings us a world premiere that is part rock ‘n’ roll, part poetry, and part searing personal history of a particularly harrowing path to self-discovery.”
DC Theatre Scene Review
“Her physicality is delightful and fun; she moves with all the confidence and bravado of a true rock star, with the vocals to match.”
