Free to Love (The Pronoun Song)
Social
Harnessing the magic of puppets, we wrote, directed, and recorded an original song to promote LGBTQ allyship in the workplace.
Because of the political pressure on the community, creating content that celebrated love was a great opportunity. It’s one of the projects I’m most proud of.
We recruited LGBTQ friends across RPA to voice and puppeteer our little guys. Indigo was puppeteered by yours truly.

Indigo
A lover of music and rhinestones, Indigo is inspired by the all-accepting Dolly Parton and proudly wears the trans pride colors in their fur.
With a wide head and gangly arms, there is nothing about them that says they’re any gender. They just are.
The Chorus
Each sock puppet backup singer represents a unique pride flag.
Jasmine she/her
Making Of
The kooky crew of muppets and sock puppets was designed by us and kindly hand-crafted by a friend.

Sariah she/her
Millie they/them
Loretta
Named for the sparkling Loretta Lynn, this girl’s the new puppet in town.
While she’s always considered herself an ally, she hasn’t met any nonbinary puppets like Indigo. She wants to use her new friend’s pronouns correctly but is nervous about getting them wrong.
All she needs is some musical encouragement.

The Allyship Agenda
We supplemented The Pronoun Song with an actionable, positive spin on the oft-heard gay agenda.
