00:00My question is, how do you guys feel about other people's opinion towards your sexuality?
00:08I don't know.
00:09I personally don't care about people's opinion because I'm happy as who I am.
00:14As you can see, the females love me and I love them, so what more can I say?
00:23I officially came out two years ago.
00:26My mom and me are still, like, not on the same page.
00:29She doesn't like it.
00:30I view myself as a female, personally.
00:32Most of my friends do say she and her, but if people call me he and him, I really can't
00:37get mad because I look like a boy, so what am I supposed to do?
00:43I want you to talk about a time when you had to hide a love from someone you were close
01:00with.
01:01The whole production of the play is based on everybody's experiences, our true stories.
01:06You're an abomination.
01:07Yes!
01:08I like you.
01:09It's because I like you.
01:10I just kind of texted her, I'm too shy to do this in person, so I was wondering if you
01:22would go out with me.
01:23That's my son.
01:24I was like, Denise, that's your son.
01:25You have to love him no matter what.
01:33Even at a young age, we experience true love.
01:37The scene focuses on how we met, but for me, it's about how we were while he was still
01:42alive.
01:43If you live in my house, you will follow my rules.
01:44Get rid of it.
01:45Today has been a month since I got kicked out of my house.
01:50When I started acting, I did it to get away from my life, but in this play, like, I'm
01:58acting my life out on stage.
02:01Tuesday, April 30th, is our first performance.
02:15How does it feel to kiss your own gender?
02:20I am a gay black male who loves God, and God loves this gay black male.
02:30How many times have you seen someone in true colors kiss on stage?
02:33Never.
