Draw the Circle at Hedgerow Theatre Company

“How can we live when we are driven by love instead of fear?” This autobiographical solo work, a meditation on identity and presence, is the story of a suburban girl named Shireen and a Brooklyn man named Deen, and the things we do to be together. Taking us on their epic journey of transition with a myriad cast of characters, this one-person show explores the courage it takes for us to live authentically when we do not fit society, religion, or familial expectations of gender. This compassionate coming-of-self-story is anchored deeply in humanity and told with heart and humor.
