The Tempermentals
by Jon Marans
New Conservatory Theatre Center
25 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco
November 4, 2011 - December 18, 2011
“Temperamental” was the
code word for a gay man in the early 1950’s - part of a created language
of secret words that gay men used to communicate. The Temperamentals
is the story of two men - the communist Harry Hay and the Viennese refugee
Rudy Gernreich - as they fall in love and build the first gay rights
organization in the pre-Stonewall United States.
