Draw the Circle by Mashuq Mushtaq Deen

Great, 5 stars

'The hilarious and deeply moving story of conservative Muslim mother at her wits' end, a Muslim father who likes to tell jokes, and a queer American woman trying to make a good impression on her Indian in-laws. In a story about family and love and the things we do to be together, one immigrant family must come to terms with a child who defies their most basic expectations of what it means to have a daughter...and one woman will redefine the limits of unconditional love. This unique play compassionately brings to life the often ignored struggle that a family goes through when their child transitions from one gender to another.'--
