CROSSING - a new musical by Jamsheed Master - a story of queer resistance. When a corporation closes the only bridge, cutting off a neighbourhood from the city, a young mechanic and their chosen family must fight to survive erasure.

CROSSING is a love letter to every queer kid told they don't belong—and a battle cry for every othered community to rise up. /more
