The Women’s Art Association of Canada presents An Evening with Scott Turner Schofield, an Emmy-nominated actor, creator, and producer whose intimate, funny, and deeply human 60-minute film Becoming a Man in 127 EASY Steps screens in Toronto on Thursday, November 13, 2025, at 7:00pm.

This exclusive, one-night-only event offers a rare chance to experience the film in an intimate gallery setting, not a typical theatre, but a cozy, art-filled space known as the Dignam Gallery, inside the historic Women’s Art Association of Canada. The screening will be projected in the gallery in a relaxed atmosphere followed by a lively post-screening discussion with Schofield.

Blending live storytelling, bold imagery, and two decades of personal footage, Becoming a Man in 127 EASY Steps is a raw and funny reflection on transition, belonging, and what it really means to “become” yourself. Twice censored and now celebrated, the film lands at a time when trans voices matter more than ever, and Schofield brings humour, tenderness, and candor to the conversation.

“This is more than a screening, it’s a conversation,” says Schofield. “It’s about celebrating the stories that make us human, in all our complexity and joy.” With Becoming a Man in 127 EASY Steps, he turns the lens inward inviting audiences to laugh, reflect, and maybe even see themselves in his story.

About Scott Turner Schofield

Scott Turner Schofield is an award-winning actor, writer, and advocate whose two-decade career has helped shape transgender inclusion in film, television, and culture. Named a “Trans Influencer of Hollywood” by OUT Magazine, he made history as the first out transgender man to earn an Emmy nomination for acting, and the first out trans actor in daytime television. 

His work spans stage, screen, and literature. On screen, he’s appeared in the acclaimed features OFF RAMP and The Conductor, and in standout roles on NBC’s The Blacklist and HBO’s The Idol. His feature Becoming a Man in 127 EASY Steps premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, and won the Audience Award for Best Feature at Out On Film

A finalist for two Lambda Literary Awards for his book Two Truths and a Lie (HomoFactus Press) Schofield is also a recipient of a National Performance Network Creation Fund grant and a Princess Grace Fellowship for acting.

Scott is also a visionary advocate for trans inclusion in Hollywood and is a sought-after consultant. He works with major studios and streaming platforms to advance authentic transgender representation. His expertise has shaped projects such as Blumhouse’s The Craft: Legacy, Disney’s Zombies 3 (where he advised leadership during Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” controversy), HBO Max’s We’re Here and Legendary, and Peacock’s THEY/THEM, which he executive produced. He also helps develop what The Daily Beast calls “TV’s most interesting trans character” on HBO’s Euphoria.

From 2017 to 2023, Schofield served as Senior Consultant at GLAAD, the world’s leading LGBTQ+ media advocacy organization. His TEDx Talk Ending Gender became a viral resource for inclusive education worldwide. Deeply rooted in activism, he continues to work with corporations and community groups to create trans-inclusive policies and expand healthcare access for millions.
