Free to Love (The Pronoun Song)
Social
Harnessing the magic of puppets, we wrote, directed, and recorded an original song to promote allyship in the workplace.
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 their body that says “masculine” or “feminine.” They just are.
The Chorus
Each sock puppet backup singer represents a unique pride flag.
Jasmine she/her
Meet the Cast
This kooky crew of muppets and sock puppets was designed by us and kindly hand-crafted by a friend.
Shea she/her
Adrian they/them
Jeremy he/him
Sariah she/her
Millie they/them
Loretta
Loretta is just getting to know Indigo and while she’s always considered herself an ally, she hasn’t met any nonbinary puppets.
She wants to use her new friend’s pronouns correctly but is nervous about getting them wrong.
All she needs is a little practice and some musical encouragement.
Colton he/him
The Song
We recruited LGBTQ friends across RPA to voice and puppeteer these little guys. Indigo was puppeteered by yours truly, and the star of the show was our AD.
Because of the social and political pressures bearing down on the community, creating content that celebrated love was an incredible opportunity and one of the projects I’m most proud of.

The Allyship Agenda
We supplemented The Pronoun Song by sharing easy action items from our LGBTQ ERG in a positive spin on the oft-heard gay agenda.
