'It's a Girl!' chronicles Avery's journey with gender through songs like 'Nothing Short of Wonderful' from Dogfight the Musical, a medley of guy songs she used to sing pre-transition, and pop music such as Elton John's Rocket Man.
There’s a particular thrill getting to be the first in an audience for a new theatrical work. You can almost feel the time, passion and love poured into a piece when it finally makes it to the stage.

NYCB boasts some of the finest dancers in the world, they are precise technicians who have honed their craft and have a unique identity but the overall effect lacks the punch audiences will be craving after such a long absence.
