Agnes, the pioneering transgender woman who participated in gender health research at UCLA in the1960s, has long stood as a figurehead of trans history. In this collaborative piece of reimagination, trans actors bring to life groundbreaking artifacts of trans healthcare to confront the legacy of a young woman forced to choose between honesty and access.
