Ground Floor Theatre production offers a tender trans portrayal
It’s going to be OK., where Joshua, an adult trans man, is embraced by his mother. Above them, Young Joshua and College Joshua form a Greek chorus of do’s and don’ts regarding trans family interactions. And the audience never worries. The trans kid makes it. His family is there. Everything is OK., softening even the most dramatic moments of conflict. If you’re looking for a hopeless indictment of the trans experience in America, well, don’t look here.

There’s an open central area flanked by cozy domestic nooks. It helps streamline the show, simplifying movement so the audience can focus on actor emotion instead of clunky scene transitions.Young Joshua and College Joshua trade off vignettes.
