Playhouse on the Square to Present 5 LESBIANS EATING A QUICHE, 7/5-28
In this comedy set in the 50s, The Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein has gathered for their annual quiche-off. When a siren signals a nuclear threat, the sisterhood unites and divides over secrets and a prize-winning quiche. Co-written by native Memphian Evan Linder, 5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche, "dishes up high-spirited theatrical comfort food with a bit of a saucy kick." - Chicago Tribune
5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche is the directing debut of Liz Sharpe and features Jeanna Juleson (Angels in America), Gail Black (A Christmas Story), Ann Marie Hall (Hay Fever) and Erin Shelton (God of Carnage). Meghan Lisi makes her Circuit Playhouse, Inc. debut.
5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche runs July 5 - July 28 as part of the POTS@TheWorks series at TheatreWorks, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm.
