The Temperamentals
by Jon Marans
Preview: Mar 20, 2025 ($15 tickets)
Performances: Mar 21 - Apr 6, 2025 ($23-$25 tickets)
“Temperamental” was code for “homosexual” in the early 1950s, part of a created language of secret words that gay men used to communicate. THE TEMPERAMENTALS tells the story of two men—the communist Harry Hay and the Viennese refugee and designer Rudi Gernreich—as they fall in love while building the first gay rights organization in the pre-Stonewall United States.
