About This Show
Pyramid Club Theater presents an encore presentation of David Harrison’s
intimate look at a transsexual journey from Female-To-Male, FTM. Based on his own personal experiences, FTM was first performed in San Francisco in May of 1994 and was the first solo theater piece ever written and performed by a female-to-male transsexual. It has toured internationally to universal acclaim, most recently as the undisputed hit of the 2003 Transgendered Theater Festival
in September. Directed by Suzi Takahashi.
In FTM, Timothy is going through the first year of his gender-change. His transformation is juxtaposed with that of his mother, Jean, who (in another time period) is experiencing changes in her body and female identity as a result of having breast cancer. Their stories–moving, funny and poignant–are told through dreams, anecdotes and remembrances.
