The Trans Conversation Project is a community event series that began with intergenerational interviews in the spring of 2024; participants agreed to meet up and mutually interview one another about their lives and experiences across generations, gender and culture. These conversations illuminated commonalities—like being a “super ally” for a few years, or being awestruck by a trans figure in the public eye; having a first important conversation with another nonbinary person or navigating changing relationships as they grow closer or fall away with transitioning.  

A THIRD SPACE is a collage of those conversations, set in liminal spaces like waiting rooms and lines for the bathroom, with a diverse all-trans/nonbinary ensemble cast of performers from a variety of experiences and expressions. 

Written by playwright Maddox Pennington (Love Chicken, Annex) and directed by Elisawon Etidorhpa (Annex, Keep in Mind) A THIRD SPACE is produced by an all-trans and nonbinary creative team of theater artists.
