“I’ve had the singular pleasure of working with Aleshia Brevard for the past 2 years on “HIGH HEELS ”, the film adaptation of her autobiography “THE WOMAN I WAS NOT BORN TO BE". “INSIDE/OUT” is a fascinating theatrical piece in the same vein…outspoken, witty, warm, totally revealing, and most of all, inspirational.

The indomitable strength of Gina and Aleshia and their unwavering quest for their true destiny resonates in one’s soul. The story of their self-discovery and discovery of each other is a story that crosses all boundaries."

'One Damn Man!' is the funny and touching story about a mother's lessons, a daughter's first love, the fight for self-respect, and a transsexual past that they both have in common. In a fast 22 minutes, Aleshia and Gina take you through the ins and outs, the ups and downs, and the past and the future of transsexuality and being transsexual.

“The unwarranted and illegal bigotry, and the horrifying violence aimed at transsexual women in our country for the past 40 years will some day be seen as a blot on American history as dark as racism. There's no one better than these two talented women to tell this story. I'm eager to see it on the stage.”

"'Inside/Out' is comedic and heartbreaking and beautiful. It's about friendship and love, and its message is transcendant -- it tells us that we don't have to be alone."

"In their play, Inside/Out, Gina Grahame and Aleshia Brevard take you through the ins and outs, the ups and downs, and the past and the future of being transsexual in America.

The play elicits laughter, tears and tender moments of sisterhood -- the playwrights / actresses connecting with their audience by using universal themes of being oneself and having the courage to engage in that wondrous/arduous journey."

"Aleshia Brevard is one sassy, classy lady--and so is Gina Grahame. 'Inside/Out' tells their intertwined tales with a verve that's rare in the transgender genre.

Expect good things from 'Inside/Out'. It has a richness of character and sense of hard-won wisdom that deserves the widest possible audience."

“Just finished reading "INSIDE/ OUT". Couldn't put it down. It is entertaining, VERY FUNNY and very sensitive to the transgender journey. It is also........soooooooooo edgy and smart. It’s terrific.”

“INSIDE/OUT is the gutsy story of a gutsy woman, Aleshia Brevard, and her younger friend, Gina Grahame, who is struggling to accept herself and find acceptance in society - straight or transgender.

'Don't deny your history; don't deny who you are', admonishes Aleshia Brevard -- who certainly didn't and doesn't. A pioneer in the early days of SRS, Brevard hit the world of stage and screen with an explosion of energy, wit, and glamour with a capital G. It is Aleshia's history and experience guiding Gina as she takes her first tentative steps out of the gender closet to join Aleshia as an out, proud, and very talented woman.

'INSIDE/OUT' makes me wish that all transgender histories were presented in such delicious doses."

"'INSIDE/OUT' is a powerful celebration of the ability of the human spirit to thrive and grow in even the most difficult of circumstances. Who among us has not struggled to live openly and genuinely in the face of pressures to conform to the expectations of others? It is impossible to listen to this story of courage without being touched by the universal power of love and hope.

May everyone have the opportunity to experience the transforming effects of this true story as told by two remarkable women unwilling to accept anything less than the authentic lives they so richly deserve."
