Trans singer records effect of testosterone on voice

Teddy is a trans man who's been performing in musical theatre since he was four.

Currently in a touring production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Teddy's also taking testosterone to help him transition.

One of the effects of the treatment - which is given to people diagnosed with gender dysphoria - is a deeper voice.

That can be a worry if you depend on your voice to make a living.

But Teddy, who's been documenting the changes, says he wants to show that the treatment won't necessarily mean you'll lose your ability to sing.
