We had a lovely conversation with Chanel Savage, Shizzy Springs and Kane Ashton about their roles in the Nebraksa Premiere of the play "Charm" by Phillip Dawkins.

"Charm" is a heartfelt and thought-provoking play that explores identity, acceptance, and the power of chosen family. Based on the inspiring true story of Chicago’s Miss Gloria Allen, this powerful work centers on Mama Darleena Andrews (played by Chanel Savage), a poised and passionate Black transgender woman who sets out to teach an etiquette class at a local LGBTQ+ youth center.

"Charm" is Directed by Randall Stevens and Co-Directed by Anthony Holmes and Asia Nared.

"Charm" opens August 14th and runs through the 24th.
