One Story at a Time: Celeste Lecesne

Celeste Lecesne candidly shares how he not only escaped the confines of homophobia, but found the courage to share his truth with the world.

In a seemingly fateful chain of events, his Off-Broadway solo-show became an Academy Award-winning film that ultimately inspired The Trevor Project, the largest suicide prevention lifeline for LGBTIQ+ youth. 25 years later, Celeste continues to inspire the next generation to have the bravery to claim their truth and continue to change the world, one story at a time.
