Perfect Arrangement at Barker Playhouse

Descripción

Join the Rhode Island Historical Society on Thursday, October 1 for the Barker Playhouse’s production of Perfect Arrangement.It’s 1950, and new colors are being added to the Red Scare. Two U.S. State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have been tasked with identifying sexual deviants within 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, madcap classic sitcom-style laughs give way to provocative drama as two “All American” couples are forced to stare down the closed door.Prior to the 7:30 p.m. performance, guests will be treated to light refreshments. Doors open at 6:45 p.m.
