Naming True

A Play Reading Honoring the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia

Amy, a transgender teenage girl, shows up unannounced in the Florida motel room of Nell, a dying woman who’s lived much of her life on the streets of Detroit and now wishes to self-publish her childhood memoir. Over the next 24 hours what unfolds is an intimate tale of survival, redemption, and the deep human desire to share our stories.

A play involving a stolen laptop, an old manuscript and a peculiar cat, NAMING TRUE explores faith, identity, forgiveness, and the indelible fingerprints guilt and loss leave on our lives.

Written and directed by Natalie Symons; June Raven Romero playing role of Amy Hult; Kalina Karadavis playing role of Nell Jordan
