CRACKS: a one-trans-woman dark comedy memoir

Claire Lochmueller

Chicago, IL
UNITED STATES
A one-trans-woman dark comedy memoir about growing up in the Catholic Church and a JROTC military high school and the pervasive ways those places affect a trans identity. CRACKS is as vulnerable as it is funny. Through a hybrid of storytelling, stand-up, and theatre the audience is taken on an emotional roller coaster of navigating gender identity, substance abuse, and finding joy. Come see how her two lives, through laughter and tears, became one trans identity.

"Insightful, entertaining, heartfelt and true. It’s classic Fringe."

"Lochmueller is hilarious and a gifted storyteller."
