This is after a prodigious nomination for a development Award in New Zealand for the same play, and several awards for "Ze": queer as f*ck! over the past two years.
The two autobiographical shows by the prominent American Kiwi feature themes of diversity, belonging, and resiliency in tough times and the positive reviews are flying in.
These shows will be coming to Los Angeles for the first time as part of a West Coast 'Belonging Tour' stretching from Victoria, BC to Hawaii. Performing a limited engagement September 15th and 16th at Stephanie Feury Studio Theatre 5636 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90038.

Second show is "ZE:" queer as f*ck! a late-night dark comedy about the sex, gender, and one queer's parade of labels and identities on their way to pride. Performances are September 15 at 9:00 pm and September 16 at 7:00 pm.
