About this Event
You can take the "gal" out of Galentine's Day, but wouldn't you rather take the gal out on Galentine's Day?
Preferably to Lez Beaus, a play festival celebrating lesbian love through the ages.
Whether it's a time-honored tale of girl gets boi in the present, or a romance between members of an all-girls baseball league in the past, the gal pals, lady friends, and lover girls in these stories experience everything from connection to rejection, affection to reflection.
Lez Beaus is the second production from Violet Surprise, a queer feminist theatre company whose mission is to present new works that vibrantly and valiantly validate the identities of queer women.
The festival features 12 ten-minute plays lovingly crafted by Rachel Baker, Shawntai Brown, Annalise Cain, Sheila Cowley, Allison L. Fradkin, Carolyn Gage, Amy Gijsbers van Wijk, Ronan Goforth, Rachel Lynett, Carol Mullen, Iris Sowlat, and Eileen Tull.
