ReadOUT, ACTout is a theatrical performance based on four commonly challenged children's books that feature alternative families and gender expressions. This production will not only draw attention to banned books week and the right to read, but will also serve to educate the University of Arizona campus about LGBTQ issues and help prevent bullying of those who are different.
The following books will be included to be read aloud as the actors perform:
-And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson
-The Sissy Duckling by Harvey Fierstein
-The Different Dragon by Jennifer Bryan
-My Princess Boy by Cheryl Kilodavis
