Jon Marans’ The Temperamentals will be the final production in the Blank Theatre Company‘s 2010-2011 season. Michael Matthews will direct the production, which will run April 9 – May 22.

The play takes its title from the 1950s code word for homosexual, and tells the story of communist Harry Hay and young Viennese refugee and designer Rudi Gernreich, founders of the pre-Stonewall gay rights organization, The Mattachine Society. Casting for the production will be announced shortly.

Marans’ other plays include the Pulitzer finalist Old Wicked Songs, along with A Strange and Separate People, Child Child, and Jumping for Joy.

Matthews’ credits include Take Me Out, currently playing at Celebration Theatre, as well as The Women of Brewster Place – The Musical, Haram! Iran!, Three Tall Women, Porcelain, and Stupid Kids.
