This was a familiar statement to me, for I’d had the chance this past September to attend the “Gayborhoods that are Gone” tour during Doors Open Milwaukee. The first transition—from Charlotte into John—caught me by surprise with its clarity as a full body and voice transformation. Riker moved through space, both the physical stage and pauses of silence, with intention. I Am My Own Wife runs through February 8th at the Broadway Theatre Center 158 N. Broadway.
