Late-in-Life Lesbian, directed by Lucy Gervais, is the award-nominated coming-out story of a comedian who gave up everything to live their best gay life. Shane Thevenot is a lesbian who went through a 32-year-long straight phase that included such terrifying events as growing up in the woods, surviving the pandemic in Montreal and U-hauling with a man. It is a hilarious, fresh take on the late-bloomer lesbian and non-binary experience that will leave audiences feeling like it's never too late to be who they were always meant to be.

No one could deny that Shane has standup chops. Their timing for jokes is often solid, sometimes off, but always funny. Their storytelling, however, could use a little organizing. Here and there I found myself confused about where we were in their self-discovery timeline, but it never took long for them to gather us up and carry on. This piece is ultimately a comfort. A reminder that it’s okay to change your mind, no matter how old you are, and that there is never a wrong answer, only steps on the path. While some of the terminology may go over the heads of those less familiar with the community, those who are questioning who they really are may very much appreciate this guiding hand.
