Max is a 12-year old trans boy trying to make sense of the world's response to his transness. Outside of school, he spends his time vlogging about magic tricks and thinking about space, all while being (reluctantly) guided by the Star Friends—magical manifestations of trans histories and possible futures. Meanwhile, his younger sister, 7-year-old Ellie, tries to make sense of her brother's gender identity by setting up a "Gender Clinic" at recess, quickly learning that, even for cis kids, gender is the most confusing thing ever. This play weaves magic into a story about the wonder of transness & childhood, reminding us that we should all be free to play.
