Lizardboy
Inspired by the playwright's experience as a refugee from Colombia in the 1980's, Lizardboy unravels the story of a family stained by the vibrancy and tragedy of that chaotic world.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls
Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls is the story of nine-year-old Fiona, who has come out as a boy. As he cuts his hair short and changes his name to Fin, his family works to understand and adjust to his gender identity. Dad accepts the change right away, but Mom struggles. We see Fin’s family grapple with their child’s transition with the best of intentions and, ultimately, begin to accept and embrace Fin for who he is.

The Mommiad
The Mommiad chronicles the relationship between a mother and her son, the ups and downs they share, and the toll that alcohol and dementia would eventually take on the mother's ife. Intimate and affirming, Sky Gilbert confirms the bond he shared with his mother, both in his own voice and through the voice of his alter ego, Jane. The Mommiad is lyrical and tragic and true, an artist's self-reflection and an endeavour to turn one Womxn's life into an artistic experience.
