ROSE MADE MAN: AN INSIDE OUT OPERA
The new opera Rose Made Man, a coming of age story of a transmale named Gabriel, is also a story of transitioning gender identity. Born deaf and thus having never heard his gender spoken by others, he lives in a relative bubble until age ten when he gains his hearing and feels the full force of hos his true identity unsettles society.
