Nick, Cast: It Gets Better

Nick Adams and the cast of Priscilla Queen of the Desert: The Musical discuss "what it means to realize you're gay as a teenager," along with bullying, and offer words of encouragement for young people in a video taped in Toronto for the It Gets Better Project.

Tony Sheldon, who plays transgender Bernadette in the stage musical, recalls the effect his father's suicide had on his family when he was 10 years old. "Suicide does irreparable damage," he says. "We were broken."

"There's a huge community just waiting for you with welcoming, open arms," Adams tells viewers. "I'm one of those people."
