ST. LOU FRINGE: JEAN

Ann Truka presented a one-woman show called simply Jean. Her website, https://www.anntruka.com/, summarizes the character as 

a non-binary children's book author and one-hit-wonder, is trying to craft their next piece of work - but what was once a story about an androgynous puppy exploring fashion is now something much more...adult. Struggling through their writer's block, they invite the audience to join them on an insightful journey navigating family relationships and what it's like to feel different.   

As you might guess, there's more to it than that. I hope Ann returns to The Fringe next year.
