What happens when LGBTQ youth of color band together and dare to be 'out' on stage about their lives and their loves? The cast of True Colors: OUT Youth Theater transforms their struggles into performance for social change. With wit, candor, and attitude, the troupe captivates audiences surprised to hear such stories in school settings. Our characters include a transgender teenager who is kicked out of her home, a devout Christian who challenges his church's homophobia, and a girl who likes to wear masculine clothing, even as she models dresses on the runway. After the Boston Marathon bombs explode yards from their rehearsal space, the troupe becomes even more determined to share their stories of love to help their city heal.
