“I’m an elder of the transgender community, and Sean Dorsey is my pride and joy.
His sensitivity to the pain that comes with transformation is as compassionate as any Zen master’s. His deadpan comic timing, his skill at seduction, his charm & boyish sexiness make us love him all the more. Dorsey choreographs and performs with a skill that rivals Mark Morris.” – Kate Bornstein |
