The Trees is an eco-homo-erotic musical with 14 songs and 6 characters, where singing trees invite the audience to interrogate progressive heroes President Teddy Roosevelt and naturalist John Muir and reimagine their American folklore as a queer fantasia that heals us and our planet. We are seeking partners to support orchestration and to stage our world premiere.

You did it! Thank you to all our donors.
We raised $25k and paid all our artists.

In 1903, Roosevelt and Muir ditched a contingent of press and dignitaries to hike alone in Yosemite for three days. Some say their connection galvanized our National Parks system, casting them as environmental heroes. β¨But our Trees tell another story.
βI am you. You are me. I am rooted. You are free. I am human. You are tree. You are rooted. You are free.β
