Synopsis: Queersighted is a 20-minute play centered around LGBTQIA+ themes, exploring both the joy and vulnerability in discovering one’s identity. The goal of the piece is to make queer narratives both accessible and educational for young people.
Character Breakdown:
ANNA – 13-18 years old. They are normally very amiable and adventurous but recently have become more reserved as they work through their identity. The character is written using she/her/hers pronouns in the script, but actors of all gender presentations & identities are welcome.
SEXUALITY – 13-18 years old. An extension of ANNA’s mind – the part that ANNA has not let the world see or meet yet. They are bold and compassionate. SEXUALITY is only visible to ANNA. The character is written using she/her/hers pronouns in the script, but actors of all gender presentations & identities are welcome.
Queersighted will rehearse 2 times a week at the Elks Lodge in Boonton NJ, with a schedule created based on the actor’s availability. If you have any questions, please email our stage manager at:
