TRANSITION - The Christine Jorgensen Collection examines the lives of three extraordinary transgender women and a gay man. Following her sex-change operation in Denmark in 1952, Christine Jorgensen became a worldwide celebrity and the first openly transsexual entertainer and public figure. Her story gave hope to thousands of other transsexual, transgender and gay people in a repressive era when sex and gender roles were strictly defined and medically enforced.

A note about terminology: While the term transgender is currently used, transsexual was the term used in the time period of Christine Jorgensen and as such is used within the play.
