    Sean, your favourite Abomination About Town is back in the studio with the newest member of the Tranzmission Team, Hazel! Today we are talking with Billy Fogarty, a local trans queer-gender professional actor. We talk about the power of art and performance to free us from the performative nature of gender, what it is like navigating finding roles in the mainstream culture, and the problems with altering one's body while still being considered for work.
