But last spring, in the midst of one of the dramedy's early table reads, Darren would have been within his rights to wonder if trey had finally led him astray. He'd agreed with her and director Kimahli Powell to cast a transgender man, and not to inform the other actors until that individual was ready.

Now he was.

The all-male, all-black cast was about to learn that someone in their midst was born a woman.

Would this secret derail Secrets?
