Last Summer at Bluefish Cove at The Fountain Theatre

Welcome to Bluefish Cove. The Fountain Theatre transforms the parking lot surrounding the set on its outdoor stage to create an oceanfront experience for its 40th anniversary production of the groundbreaking drama, Last Summer at Bluefish Cove by Jane Chambers. Set in 1974, a group of queer women spend their summers together in a remote oceanfront town on Long Island. Their lesbian enclave is disrupted when Eva, a naïve straight woman recently separated from her husband, stumbles unaware into their circle and falls for the charming, tough-talking Lil. This heartfelt play, a landmark in lesbian history, is bursting with friendship, laughter, love and hope, bringing well-rounded, three-dimensional characters that transcend stereotypes and preconceptions to the stage. June 17 thru Aug. 27; Outdoor Stage at the Fountain Theatre, 5060 Fountain Ave. (at Normandie), Los Angeles, CA 90029; $25-$45; Pay-What-You-Want every Monday (subject to availability); (323) 663-1525; www.FountainTheatre.com.
