And/Orlando

100 minutes / 5 Actors

As of 2019, Facebook lists over 70 gender options ranging from transmasculine to neutrois.  And/Orlando navigates this proliferation of options, lifting the veil of political correctness surrounding transgender discourse.  Throughout the play, Virginia Woolf’s Orlando provides a literary touchstone, a way to historicize gender fluidity.  But for all its gender-bending exploration, And/Orlando is primarily about parenting, an increasingly complicated challenge in the new millennium.
