PERFECT ARRANGEMENTwritten by Topher Payne
directed by John Heimbuch
May 30 – June 21, 2026
at the Crane Theater
It’s 1950, and the government is purging the “enemies within”. Two U.S. State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have a great track record of rooting out Communists. Now, they’ve been tasked with identifying sexual deviants among 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, this production from Walking Shadow Theatre Company blends madcap classic sitcom-style laughs with provocative drama as two “All-American” couples are forced to stare down the closet door.
Featuring
Joe Swanson, Elora Riley, Theo Janke-Furman, Rachel Postle Finch, Peter Colburn, Julie Ann Nevill, and Lily Rains.
