But rather than merely playing both sides of the binary, Thomas excels at and strives to operate outside of it entirely. They look forward to playing roles that will challenge the idea of the "traditionally male" or "always female" part.

Mx. Nicky Endres (they/she) has long defied convention. An adopted Asian-American Non-Binary Transfeminine Queer actor, comic, voice artist, and audiobook narrator with keen comedic timing and a love for auditorily-naturalistic (but visually-nightmarish) compound sentences, they have long challenged cultural categories to forge their own way. An English/Theatre double-major, Nicky spent most of their liberal arts university education reading, writing, and performing - and after toiling over which of the three was the sexiest way to be a starving artist, went all-in on Hollywood because it snows in New York.
Nicky is a convergence of contraries: East and West, masculine and feminine, pathos and levity. With a specialty for gender transformation, they are cast as much for their androgynous look as for their versatility across the gender spectrum, providing authenticity to multidimensional Queer identities. Although the pitch and texture of Nicky's signature sultry sonacy can range from baritone to alto, lending itself to characters of all genders, their natural Non-Binary Trans voice isn't so much a Sound as it is a Perspective.
Nicky has enjoyed a wide variety of roles in TV, film, and theatre - recurring on One Day at a Time (Netflix; PopTV) and with notable guest stars in The Dropout (Hulu) and NCIS: Los Angeles (CBS). Other recent credits include Lucifer (Netflix) and On the Verge (Netflix). Nicky also provides the English-language voice for the starring role of Spanish Trans icon Christina Ortiz Rodriguez in Veneno, the limited series about her life (HBO Max).
Hailing from a small town in Wisconsin, Nicky discovered a passion for dialects - a passion rooted in overcoming their own wholesome Midwestern brogue. Also a DIY maven, graphic designer, and SharePoint architect, Nicky most appreciates the design elements of storytelling, and brings a winsome combination of heart and smart to every project. Nicky's modern, unpretentious, naturally didactic way of speaking has earned them a reputation as an Edutainer; even their bluest stand-up sets have the unwitting effect of a sex-positive TED talk.
Nicky enjoys martial arts, dark existentialist themes, victories in representation and inclusion, and unicorns. They are passionate about building bridges with LGBTQIA+ Allies, advocating for sex-positivity & consent, and - most of all, and with deep sincerity - Nicky is devoted to Xena: Warrior Princess.- Writer

Kuan Wei Yu is a writer-director focusing on telling stories connected to and inspired by queer experiences. He was born and raised in Taiwan and moved to the US in 2017 to pursue an education and career in film. Kuan had experience crewing on multiple film sets, including film school projects, senior thesis projects and professional shows. Kuan directed 4 short film projects.
What drew him to filmmaking is the magical way that movies make the audience feel. How we can feel genuine joy and sorrow for what essentially are images on a screen, and that's why invoking emotions in the audience is essential to Kuan's storytelling style. Growing up as a queer person, Kuan felt an intense loneliness, which is why he would like to dedicate his filmmaking career to telling stories inspired by his own queer experiences, hoping that future generation of queer youth will have representation on screen and won't feel as isolated as he did once. Kuan's goal is to be a writer-director of his own diverse and queer-experience-inspired stories, using filmmaking to amplify voices from marginalized communities and inspire positive changes in the world.
