“It's a crazy soprano, and singing as a man as a woman. But for many years, I was on the road in Chicago as Mary Sunshine, so I can do that.

“For instance, my friend would never go on the show to air her dirty-laundry. But Tremont is outrageous! I've been watching a lot of clips of "The Jerry Springer Show" on YouTube (I can't tell you how many clips there are!) I get to witness these men going through the process to become women and what they're sharing. My character is pre-op. She's had the breast augmentation but still got "the goods" down there.” MenStillsI CanCharacterShowsProcessAirGoes OnMy FriendsInstanceWitnessDirtyBreastsGoodsYoutubeOutrageousJerryLaundryClipDirty LaundryJerry Springer Show Author:Max von Essen
“My role is almost a sight-gag. I have to be a woman to sing the lyrics "I am a man" to have it be a joke. I start the lyric in a male-register and a whole coloratura up into a soprano. And other points in the show... like the guy who likes to be treated like a baby and wear a diaper!” MenWholeShowsGuyRolesBabyJokesSightMalesLikesTreatedRegisterDiapersSopranosGags Author:Max von Essen
