"Kate Davis' 2001 documentary about a transgender man is now a musical. The songs aren't as didactic as "I Am What I Am," but a few anthems come close."

I'm of two minds about this.  On one hand, anything at all that tells a transgender story regarding denial of health service to people who might learn from it is great.  On the other hand, I don't know if I could handle the musical because I lived it.  Robert was a friend and I was the first person to hug Lola the night Robert died.
