The Queer & Trans Legacy Initiative (QTLI) is launching with the first live screenplay reading of THEY, performed by professional actors.
THEY is a queer coming-of-age story set on the street. After 15-year-old Jadan is thrown out of their home for being queer, they find love with Lila and a chosen family with their friend Crystal Queer. When one night shatters everything theyβve built, Jadan has to face their past, and their mother. Itβs a story of resilience, chosen family, and love.
AFBS is proud to sponsor this event and support QTLI+ voices π£.
ποΈ The event is free, but you need to register here: showpass.com/qtli/
