Fellow Travelers Opera

Fellow Travelers Opera

Based on the best selling book by Thomas Malton, Fellow Travelers is both a story of the heart and a taut political thriller. A chance encounter between recent college graduate Timothy Lauglin and handsome state department official Hawkins Fuller results in Tim’s first job and first love affair with a man. Yet, during the McCarthy Era Lavender Scare, communists are not the only enemies. Explicit and implicit aggression directed towards abolishing “homosexual tendencies” in the government creates a world of fear and shame in the two men. As McCarthy mounts a frantic bid for power, Tim and Hawk find it more and more dangerous to navigate their double lives. Full of sincere heartbreak, Fellow Travelers is an ode to the importance of being one’s self and the courage it takes to stand up to political tyranny.
