The Dictionary

"Transfems and transmascs and enbies, oh my!" I keep talking about "non-binary" this and "gender-fluid" that...  I figured I ought to give you a quick primer on all the gender-related terminology I'll be using throughout the rest of the podcast. And then, since this is me we're talking about, the "quick primer" devolved into a whole exploration of the rich world of gender and why it's so important that I'm writing a whole musical about it. You shouldn't stop at the word of a cis guy when it comes to any of this, though.  Maybe Burke [https://www.maybeburke.com], Schuyler Bailar [https://www.pinkmantaray.com/], and Alok Menon [https://www.alokvmenon.com/] are just three of the many gender-expansive educators out there providing resources to help navigate what may feel to some of you like a new, alien world beyond the binary of male and female.  For further reading, check out the novel Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters and the Alicia Roth Weigel's memoir Inverse Cowgirl. Special thanks to Nick Myers for letting me include instrumental arrangements of our songs "Anthem" and "Jenny" as background music.

episode The Proposal artwork

The Proposal

What do you send an author's agents to convince them to let you adapt a novel into a musical?  To start with, a couple songs from the proposed adaptation!  But how do you decide what should be a song?  How do you write a song like this in the first place? And most importantly, how do you present it to the author and her agents?  You can't just send them sheet music!  (Honestly, I wouldn't even send musicians only sheet music.)  What ends up on the page is only a fraction of the story; it's the people who bring it to life who make the real magic.  In this case, I reached out to Jayke Workman [https://www.jaykeworkman.com/] to sing Dex's first song, "A Moment," and to Meagan Reyes [https://open.spotify.com/artist/2pslVT38KyoetSRSvrW691] to sing Delia's first song, "Back to Us," and the two of them aboslutely blew me away.  Check out their other material on YouTube and Spotify, and also listen to the official demos they recorded!  Go to cinderellaboy.com, or go to the Spotify playlist directly at cinderellaboy.com/playlist.
