On Dec. 1, 1952, the front page of The New York Daily News carried the eye-grabbing headline “EX-GI BECOMES BLONDE BEAUTY.” That blonde beauty was CHRISTINE JORGENSEN, now considered a trailblazing trans pioneer.

Upon returning to the U.S. in 1953 after gender-reassignment surgery in Denmark, Christine suddenly found herself the most talked-about personality in America. She was so famous that she couldn’t find a job. So…a down-and-out song-and-dance man named MYLES BELL was hired to help her develop a nightclub act.

Award-winning playwright Donald Steven Olson has written a sparkling new musical about Jorgensen’s transformation from a shy young woman who couldn’t sing or dance into a glamorous and successful nightclub entertainer, and the man who helped her find her voice.

International cabaret star and award-winner MARK NADLER plays Myles Bell and NICOLA GORHAM plays Christine in this Fresh Fruit Festival production directed by MICHAEL BLATT. Tickets are going quickly so don’t miss out – be among the first to enjoy an extraordinary TRANSFORMATION!

TRANSFORMATION: The Christine Jorgensen Show will have its world premiere at The Fresh Fruit Festival at The Wild Project on Manhattan’s Lower East Side for only THREE PERFORMANCES: Thursday, April 27, 6:30pm; Friday, April 28, 8:30pm; Saturday, April 29, 1pm.
