Produced by Next Exit Productions & Southern Exposure Chattanooga, we're thrilled to present:

InterseXtions is a hysterically subversive, playful, bawdy, feminist comedy that dives into the lives of four women and one self-described “gender-nonconforming, masculine-presenting, female-bodied individual” (who’s comfortable with female pronouns) as they discover the very human need to be seen and heard.

As the characters empower one another to grow past their imposed limitations, whether cultural, sexual, marital or otherwise, they will have you both roaring with laughter and rooting for transformation.

For mature audiences.
