The Guide to Being Fabulous

The Guide to Being Fabulous features stories and original songs that follow Sandra Caldwell’s journey from a pickpocketing youth to a star of stage and screen.

Along the journey she joins the frontlines of the Stonewall riots, the New York Ballroom scene, parties at Studio 54 and performs everywhere from the Moulin Rouge to Broadway and on screen for The Cheetah Girls. It’s not all glam and glitz though as her prison time in Montreal and New York can attest to. Sandra’s story is as inspiring as it is incredible, and her decades of experience are a testament to survival in a world that denied her existence.

An award-winning actress, trailblazer, and icon, Sandra is an inspiration within and beyond the Trans community.
