Please welcome the incredible cast of I NEVER ASKED FOR A GOFUNDME, a National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere by Jayne Deely! After Millie and her partner Avery land back in Millie’s hometown of Mobile, Alabama, while Avery recovers from a gender-affirming top surgery, a nosy, evangelical family friend mistakes Avery’s top surgery for a battle with breast cancer and makes a GoFundMe for the couple (all in the name of the good Lord, of course). Don’t hesitate to secure your seat to this “razor-sharp and deeply human” new play, running October 1-25 at Actor’s Express!
