What do you get when you cross the comedy and satire of infomercials with an emotionally-charged character dealing with life as a transgender man?
Jen Sikora's new production, Paid Programming, which will take the UM-Flint Black Box Theatre stage this fall.
Sikora is a Flint playwright who crafted the original work that weaves comedic infomercials into the life of Max -- the transgendered man torn between happiness and meeting social expectations.
