An autobiography in story and song, transgendered actress/singer Alexandra Billings' tour de force is a hilarious, and sometimes harrowing, rollercoaster journey through her complex life. From boyhood to womanhood, she paints a Picasso-like portrait of herself through the eyes of those who knew her best, and least. Not for the faint of heart, this ride takes you from summer camping into the asphalt jungle and back alleys of Chicago and its counter culture and phoenix-like through the air to New York City and L.A.

Written by Alexandra Billings

Composed by Alexandra Billings with Arrangements by Steve Schalchlin.

Lyrics by Chrisanne Blankenship Billings.

Developed and Directed by Mary Beidler Gearen

Nominated for a Los Angeles ADA Award for Best Musical/Best Actress of the Year.
