DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - eMusicWire -- (Delray Beach, FL – May 9, 2022) Arts Garage presents raw, revealing, empowering live theater this weekend:

Sunday May 15, at 7:30 pm

Naming True

In this play reading of an "intimate tale of survival, redemption, and the deep desire to share our stories," playwright/director Natalie Symons' Naming True shares the shattering narratives of two damaged outsiders: Amy (played by June Raven Romero), a transgender teenage girl who shows up unannounced in the Florida hotel room of Nell (Kalina Karadavis), a dying woman who's lived much of her life on the streets of Detroit. The play explores faith, identity, forgiveness, and the indelible fingerprints that guilt and loss leave on lives. The Observer called the play "gutsy" and praised its "flashes of rude hilarity."

Honoring The International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia, this play reading features:

++ Natalie Symons, an award-winning playwright/actress/novelist, who's works have been developed and produced at theaters around the world. Her debut novel, Lies in Bone, is now available wherever books are sold, or through audible.com.
