The East Campus Theatre Department is pleased to announce the Northeast
Ohio premiere of the recent Off-Broadway smash, The Tempermentals, by
Jon Marans.

 

"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 United States. 

 

 "Intellectual, emotional, and brilliant." - The New York Times  

"Fascinating, entertaining, and emotionally affecting." - The Associated
Press  

"Combines savvy context and ascending flights of bittersweet
fabulousness." - Newsday

"A powerhouse of a play! " - Time

 

Honors: Outstanding New Off-Broadway Play 

         Distinguished Performance Award

         Outstanding New York Theatre Award

         Outstanding Ensemble

         John Gassner Playwriting Award

 

Auditions for 5 actors (AEA welcome), will be scheduled sometime in the
Fall for a February, 2012 production: stayed tuned for details.
