Connected, the Musical at Acting Out Theater Company Inc

Abby Robbins is preparing for the annual culminating show at her skating rink. Her star pair, Gabriella and Derek, have just won a national title. However, Abbys husband, Jeremy, has been acting manipulative and even cruel while appearing charming to the online world, and Gabriella is uncharacteristically nervous. After exploring the idea of being transgender, Gabriel starts using he/him pronouns and quits skating, leaving Derek in the lurch at an unfortunate moment. Gabriel's mother, Helen, struggles with her expectations of parenthood and is not helpful to her child's growth. Luckily, Gabriel's friends and online community show him that he is not alone. This honest, contemporary, uplifting tale explores human relationships and personal responsibility.
