Fringe Theater kicks off 2024 with a bang — and the over-the-top antics of “Five Lesbians Eating a Quiche,” a play by Evan Linder and Andrew Hobgood. The absurd comedy runs Jan. 10-20 at the Key West Armory, 600 White St.
“We wanted to begin 2024 with something upbeat and unexpected. When audience members check in, they’ll become a part of the storyline and a part of the fun,” said Fringe’s managing artistic director, Rebecca Tomlinson.
It is 1956 on the morning of the Annual Quiche Breakfast held by the Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein. But the day will not go according to plan.
“Five Lesbians Eating a Quiche,” winner of the 2012 NYC International Fringe Festival, is directed by Glenda Donovan and stars Caroline Taylor, Diane May, Jessica Newman, Samantha Laskey and Donna Stabile.
Fringe’s scenic design team includes Don Lynch, Kendall Cameron, Aramis Ikatu and Rebecca Tomlinson. Art direction and stage management is by Jim Argoudelis and Fringe’s construction crew includes Charlie Bengel, Jerry Caputo, Ray West and Jim Beyl.The show runs 70 minutes without intermission.
