Cassie Workman is probably the most experienced newcomer to comedy in the country, owing to the fact that she previously performed under another name. She has recently returned to the stage after her transition, and is making waves. Created by the multi-award-winning comedian Cassie Workman, Giantess is a story of self-acceptance. Interweaving music, comedy, storytelling and illustration, Cassies one-person-show explores the anguish of coming to terms with a gender identity that doesnt match your body. After being abducted by a troll, a girl must realise her destiny, and escape. What lies beyond his kingdom is a mystery, so she will need the strength of a giantess. A COMPELLING STORYTELLERHEART-WRENCHING AND REVELATORY, CHARMING AND FUNNY, PROUD BUT SELF-EFFACING. ★★★★ Chortle Cassie Workman is a former RAW comedy winner who went on to win the 2011 Melbourne International Comedy Festivals Best Newcomer Award and has since been seen on Channel 10s Its a Date and Die on Your Feet, as a contributor on Tonightly With Tom Ballard on ABC and in her series So You Think You Can Trans which picked up thousands of views and shares online.
