The Christine Jorgensen Show

book & lyrics by Donald Steven Olson
music by Donald Steven Olson & Mark Nadler
directed by Michael Barakiva

Original songs power this hilarious and heartfelt play about living life on your own terms. In the buttoned-up 1950s, an ex-GI became the first transgender celebrity in America. Based on her true story, The Christine Jorgensen Show is a feel-good retelling of the cabaret act that transformed this American icon from headline into headliner! Cleveland Play House Artistic Director Michael Barakiva, who helmed the show’s Off-Broadway premiere, brings this crowd-pleasing hit to Cleveland for its Midwest premiere.
