A self-described "feminist passionate about anti-racism and anti-capitalism," Drake's solo performance Other-wise is a coming out to his family.
"This show was kind of a letter to my family. Initially, I had intended on performatively tracking the process of coming out to my family as transgender. And I found I just couldn't tell them. So the show became about how I couldn't tell them and all the related issues and politics.
