Dylan starts the show before it begins by ushing the people into their seats wearing an enormous pair of angel wings.  She is personable and funny and very approachable.  It really sets the show off to a good start.  Once the curtain goes up, Dylan traces her life from being an angel in heaven who is being “challenged” by her life assignment as a trans through her adult life.  The child-through-teens section of the show is pure camp, and utterly delightful. Zingers zip by and physical gags abound.  The middle of the show dives into Dylan’s transition and her rise as a TikTok influencer, and subsequent controversy and cancellation, without providing the details that made the first half so fun.

Mulvaney’s Broadway career is hardly mentioned (she was in The Book of Mormon), and it’s not specifically explained how or why she started posting her transition journey on social media. Suddenly, Mulvaney’s getting brand deals (she doesn’t much get into the specifics of the Bud Light deal – I guess she really can’t), and later direct messages from haters and fans, delivered as letters by an opossum mail carrier, which I really didn’t understand – but, okay . . .

Dylan easily wins the affection of the audience, but, as she points out, it’s not the people in the room she’s worried about, It’s the people in the outside in world that are trying to harm trans people, and especially HER that worry her most!  It is a nice touch of realism with an important message – – mixed with the right amount of camp mixed with a winning personality.  The perfect recipe for fun evening in the theatre.
