Red Tee

Gender, family patterns, traditions, labels… It’s time for role call. Who are you?

If you’ve been wearing red for generations, what happens when it doesn’t feel right? And what happens when everyone says you’re the one who’s wrong?

This vignette play examines questions of identity and what happens when someone doesn’t fit in the way everyone expects them to. Are you ready to have these conversations?

Flexible gender casting, flexible cast size, easy to stage.

Praise for Red Tee

Woodbine Heights Drama Club

Rehearsal by rehearsal, more of the heart in the script revealed itself to us. Handling this important content with such sensitivity and humour, Lindsay Price offers community theatre an opportunity to tell the truth about the world with both insight and hope. The cast was engaged from the start and took great joy in bringing the story to life for three appreciative audiences.
