‘Trevor: The Musical’ Sets Disney+ Premiere Date

A filmed version of the critically lauded Off Broadway production Trevor: The Musical will debut exclusively on Disney+ Friday, June 24.


Produced by RadicalMedia, Trevor: The Musical follows 13-year-old Trevor (winningly played by newcomer Holden William Hagelberger) as he navigates a “turbulent journey of self-discovery.” The musical is based on the 1995 Academy Award-winning short film Trevor written by Celeste Lecesne and directed by Peggy Rajski, which inspired the nonprofit organization The Trevor Project, now the world’s largest suicide prevention and mental health organization for LGBTQ young people.
