Drowsy Chaperone at Carnegie Hall🩷🤍🩵

On Monday night, the trans community made history at Carnegie Hall. I still cannot believe that I was a part of it, what a night. I love being trans and I love making art that empowers our community. Major thank you to @lmorganlee and @breakingthebinarytheatre for this opportunity, I could not be more grateful to have shared the stage with all of these incredible people. Thank you to everyone who came out to support me, and to all of my teachers and mentors who have gotten me this far. I will truly never forget this. So much love to everyone involved, we really did something bigger than all of us🏳️‍⚧️💕

The Shirt Song - Trans Voices Cabaret 2026
-
Some trans joy for your page today 🏳️‍⚧️🥰 A couple months ago I had the honor of performing in this spring’s @transvoicescabaret (with beautiful accompaniment by @farrahnumberone). I knew right away that this would be one of the songs I performed. I sang this back before I transitioned at camp, and it meant the world to me. It was the first time I worked on a song that put words to how I was feeling, and it is to this day the only song that so directly and earnestly communicates my trans experience. Thank you to @tydefoe and @tidtaya_sinutoke for creating a truly profound piece of art with this song- I hope more people in the trans community find it and make it their own. Huge shout out to @anastasvarinos for seeing me all those years ago and giving me this song (and also teaching me how to act and sing at the same time hello). I could write a book about what this all means to me and how full circle this all is, but I’ll cap it here. Happy pride, support trans artists, and please cis people start being more active about your allyship. by @gioo.coppola

$Oh you thought the Rent posts were done? FALSE! Honestly I’m not even gonna get all sappy long paragraph with it- I had the privilege of meeting and working with some incredible people in San Diego, and I left so full of gratitude and LOVE. I don’t have actual pics with everyone but I love you all the same. I miss you all, I’m never going to forget this experience we shared. (lowkey… that was a paragraph.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) also featuring my incredible girlfriend who travelled 3000 miles to see me, I love you so much 💕💕💕 by @gioo.coppola$
