'Glee' Features 200-Person Transgender Choir (VIDEO)<\/b>
\nOver the years, “Glee” has pushed the boundaries of mainstream lesbian<\/a>, gay<\/a>, bisexual<\/a> and transgender (LGBT) visibility on television. And even though the show is currently airing its final season, it appears to be more dedicated to this radical visibility than ever.<\/p>\n

On Friday night’s episode of “Glee,” producers debuted a 200-person transgender choir<\/a> composed of trans<\/a>-identifying individuals from all across the country. The choir was featured in an episode titled “Transition” in which Dot Marie-Jones’ character, Coach Beiste, reportedly returns to the school<\/a> for first time following his transition.<\/p>\n

Popular trans<\/a> character Unique also returns for the episode<\/a> in order to support Beiste and lead the choir in a rendition of “I Know Where I’ve Been” from the musical “Hairspray.”<\/p>\n

“This is so exciting and we never really knew if this was possible,” director Dante Di Loreto states in the above video<\/a>, “but when you hear where everybody’s from — from Birmingham, from Denver, from Atlanta — it makes you realize that this really is the face of America.”<\/p>\n

Check out the video<\/a> above to hear more.<\/p>\n
