What is a gender-neutral dressing room?

I'm trying to understand "A Black Trans 'Hamilton' Cast Member Has Filed A Discrimination Complaint Against The Show/In the federal complaint, Suni Reid said their contract was suspended after requesting a gender-neutral dressing room" (BuzzFeed).

Is this a demand for one's own separate dressing room while all the rest of the cast is using either the men's dressing room or the women's dressing room? Or is it a demand to remove the separation of men and women into 2 different rooms and mix the sexes in all of the dressing room space? 

It sounds as though Reid was using the men's dressing room:

According to the complaint, which was filed with the Los Angeles office of the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission, Reid was repeatedly misgendered and mocked for their gender presentation during performances of the show. In dressing rooms, male cast members allegedly derided them for wearing dresses, at times calling them "auntie" and "Madea."

Madea is a female character played by the male comedian Tyler Perry in lots of things I've never seen. 

I wonder, what was Reid's character in the play? Is Reid a trans man who plays a female character, chooses to use the men's dressing room, is given that choice but then teased, and therefore demanded a private dressing room? We're told the request for "a gender-neutral dressing room" came after what the complaint says were "bullying and attacks that Mx. Reid had faced in the male dressing rooms at Hamilton in the past."

"Mx." would seem to indicate a preference for being regarded as neither gender.

[M]anagers said they would simply section off part of the main dressing room with a sheet or curtain, a solution Reid said would be inadequate. It was after raising the dressing room issue that Reid said they began to face retaliation.... Throughout this period, Reid's fellow cast members were largely supportive, they said, and one leading actor gave up his private dressing room in order to turn it into a gender-neutral one.... Producers allegedly refused to answer whether it was due to the dressing room issue, saying only “there is more to that story than you know.” 

The BuzzFeed article is puzzling, but I quickly turned up the New York Post article which has lots of pictures of Reid — dressed in various costumes — and a list of roles played in the show: Aaron Burr, George Washington, Hercules Mulligan/James Madison and Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson.

What was the "misgendering"? This was an actor who played male roles and used the men's dressing room, so perhaps the misgendering was only a failure to remember to use the preferred pronoun "they." Or does it count as misgendering if you compare someone to a character of a different gender or if you compare person who identifies as neither gender to any male or female?

I get the feeling the Buzzfeed writer is trying so hard to be correct about everything that... they can't set out the facts comprehensibly!
