TALES OF THE TRANCESTORS:
THE DIVINE
December 12-14, 2024 | Greenway Court Theatre
Tales of the Transcestors: The Divine is a must-see World Premiere that reimagines folklore, mythologies, and spiritual guides across time and cultures. Through three interwoven stories rooted in Native Hawaiian tradition (Kapaemahu), Islamic mysticism (djinn), and spiritual alchemy (the Rebis), the production unearths personal and cultural histories to reclaim trans wisdom, healing, power, and joy. Co-produced with Greenway Arts Alliance.

Our Impact
With nearly four decades of contributions to the LGBTQIA+ conversation, Celebration Theatre has made an artistic mark on audiences and the community...and the work continues.
Support Us
Making art takes an ensemble. Celebration Theatre has remained a vital force in the Los Angeles arts community for nearly forty years through the ongoing contributions from donors, partners, and volunteers. We invite you to join us.
Today are the final two performances of “Tales of the Transcestors: The Divine” - link in the bio to grab last minute seats. The matinee performance includes a talkback.
During the Matinee we have a talkback with the cast, moderated by director Nico Pang! Nico was not just our director, but also heavily involved in the pre-production process as a writing consultant and guiding writer selection, and then of course for casting and building the show. This cast conversation is a reflection on the writers’ rich themes and characters our artists get to inhabit.

In the face of this horrific push of anti-trans legislation, I’ve gathered up some of my trans and non-binary followers of ALL ages to show the power and beauty of this community- starting with the importance of protecting our youth.
Our trans children deserve a fighting chance. They deserve respect, autonomy, and basic human rights. They deserve to survive, because they deserve to also thrive.
A message to the trans adults of the world- your existence is profound to queer youth.

Feel free to spread this message and these beautiful faces far and wide.
