Transgender actor helped rewrite role in 'Things I Know to Be True'

www.azcentral.com: Australian playwright Andrew Bovell earned widespread acclaim for 2016’s “Things I Know to Be True,” about an empty-nest couple forced to reckon with four adult children who turn out to be not quite the people they thought they were.

For the play’s U.S. premiere — a co-production by Milwaukee Repertory Theatre and Arizona Theatre Company — Bovell and the director, Mark Clements, chose to transplant the action to the Midwest, recasting the story for an American audience.
