A dear friend of mine, Tucker Rafferty, after reading from Surfacing, a collection of essays I had penned, asked permission to adapt them into a one-woman show. The following was adapted from an essay titled "I'm the Wrong Dress Size". I never intended that the essay become a monologue and I certainly never intended that I should perform the piece. A mutual friend however, read some of the dramaturgy and suggested that an excerpt be included in a benefit concert for the Kalamazoo Gay and Lesbian Resource Center. The result is below.

"Wrong Dress Size" has been performed on a number of occasions since, including, at the opening of the "Coming Out, Proud" film festival in Kalamazoo and during Transgender Day of Remembrance observances.
