Truth Future Bachman Works-in-Progress Showing

Brooklyn-based composer, playwright, and vocalist Truth Future Bachman deftly interweaves three of the most compelling cultural threads of our moment: musical theater, gender fluidity, and superhero/sci-fi parables. Join Truth, and collaborators Z Infante and Steven Tran as they workshop pieces from the third act in a series of queer and trans superhero musicals called Shapeshifters (following Luna and the Starbodies and Skyward: An Endling Elegy). Catch it here before this brand new musical, SECOND SIGHT, debuts at Lincoln Center on October 3rd.

Xander is a doctor facing an impossible choice. To escape the iron fist of the 'Dissociate or Die' policy, he flees to the outskirts of society, where musicians, poets, and baristas create an unlikely coalition. Here, bodies entwine and erotic acts of rebellion erupt in defiance. At the heart of it all is Sike, an oracle whose visions conjure unseen futures. But when Sike's dreams awaken Xander's dormant healing powers, the two find their revolution-and their desires-at the center of a war zone.

Sex, love, and music sew the seeds of change in Truth Future Bachman's SECOND SIGHT.\\Truth Future Bachman is a composer, vocalist, and writer based in Brooklyn, New York.
