2. Perfect Arrangement

The Hippodrome and the UF School of Theatre + Dance partner to open the 52nd season with ‘Perfect Arrangement’.

It’s 1950, and new colors are being added to the Red Scare. Two U.S. State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have been tasked with identifying sexual deviants within their ranks. There’s just one problem: Both Bob and Norma are gay, and have married each other’s partners as a carefully constructed cover. Inspired by the true story of the earliest stirrings of the American gay rights movement, madcap classic sitcom-style laughs give way to provocative drama as two “All-American” couples are forced to stare down the closet door.

Inspired by the true story of the Lavender Scare, Perfect Arrangement merges madcap sitcom-style laughs with provocative drama as two closeted U.S state Department employees struggle to maintain their cover – and their sanity – in 1950s America.

Step into a witty and thought-provoking comedy that blends intrigue and romance while challenging conformity and celebrating the courage to be true to oneself. Don’t miss this captivating exploration of love, loyalty, and the price of perfection.
