Transitory State - Help Support Trans Theater!
Donation protected
Hello! Firstly thank you for taking the time to click through to this fundraiser!
I'm Vic, a trans-masculine non-binary theater artist who is lucky enough to have the opportunity to put up a stage play in this year's Indianapolis Fringe Festival! This is an incredibly exciting moment for me, as this if the first time I will be putting up work that is completely my own outside of a school setting. But, theater is expensive, and I could use some help making this production a financial reality.
"Transitory State" is a subversion of the queer tragedy, born out of frustration at the existence of the 'bury your gays' trope in media. It examines grief, how we grow through it, love, and trans adulthood through a sentimental, comedically tinted lens.
The entire cast is trans characters who are going to be played by trans actors. Its important to me to prioritize trans people, especially trans people of color, in all aspects needed to get this show off the ground.
The bulk of the money I'm trying to raise will go towards paying cast and crew. While I plan on splitting ticket sales equally, I would like to be able to guarantee $500 payment to each person for their work. The remainder of the funds will go towards basics like set and props, playbills, and other promotional materials.
So if you want to support trans stories being told by trans people, for trans people, and can send a little cash our way, I would greatly appreciate it! If you can't afford to donate, but can pass this around, that is also greatly appreciated!
Thank you all <3
