A Transgender Woman on the Internet Crying: In Concert

22 February, 2025 / 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm AEDT

From writer/performer Cassie HamiltonA Transgender Woman on the Internet, Crying is a hyper-pop rave war that colourfully collides love, identity, furries and the transformative power of the trans community.

Avis O’Hara (@theDIYDoll) is the most fabulous and famous trans influencer on the internet. Cutting-edge, left-tube vlogger Corrin Verbeck has had enough. Determined to expose Avis as a comphet, bio-essentialist, TERF-lite traitor, Corrin pretends to befriend her – but the plan backfires spectacularly.

What ensues is all-out transgender cyber warfare as two trans femmes battle to uncover the person behind the internet discourse. But in the chaotic, nuance-free world of the internet, can love possibly triumph over heartbreak, rage and worst of all… crying?

 

 

Following its celebrated debut at the 2024 Adelaide Cabaret Festival, Cassie’s electrifying performances with Home Grown, and her recognition as an APRA Professional Development Award finalist, this groundbreaking new work takes the next step in its journey. For the first time ever, it will undergo a two-week development, culminating in a thrilling concert presentation of the entire piece—limited to just three performances. Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to witness a work in progress that’s already making waves.

Featuring a powerhouse cast of five trans performers, A Transgender Woman on the Internet, Crying comes to life in concert, delivering the full-throttle impact of its music and story in an electrifying, stripped-back format. Led by writer-performer Cassie Hamilton alongside an extraordinary cast Blake Appelqvist, Teo Vergara, Rosie Rai & Aiden Gale Miranda, this bold, heart-pounding hyper-pop spectacle is set to thrill Melbourne audiences.

Don’t miss this fierce, funny and poignant exploration of identity, community and the internet’s rollercoaster of emotions
