From the stage to everyday life, theater educator Jo Michael Rezes studies queer identity and the spectrum of gender performance -- in its success and failure. Aided by a delightful introduction of campy charm, Rezes explores the freeing potential of playing with gender to better understand ourselves, each other and the spaces we inhabit.
