It took one punch to start gay revolution. It took one gender-bending lesbian to throw that punch. This is her story! STORME: A Musical Play

I am thrilled and humbled to be named a 2024 NYC Women’s Fund recipient by Made In New York and the New York Foundation for the Arts. STORMÉ the musical play is one of 72 projects to receive funding through the NYC Women’s Fund for Media, Music and Theatre, a groundbreaking initiative from The City of New York Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment that has targeted the underrepresentation and equity challenges that women have historically faced in the media and entertainment industries.  It was a photo essay that inspired me to write a historical play based on the true-life story of Stormé DeLarverie, a biracial big band singer, male impersonator, and Stonewall Rebellion icon. In the wake of rising attacks on stories representing BIPOC and LGBTQ+ experiences and voices, I wanted to write play that honors the sacrifices of those who came before us and inspires a new generation to continue the “good fight."
