Eggers Can't Be Choosers - Or Can They?

"Lucy Ricardo: Did you ever wish there was something else to marry besides men?

Ethel Mertz: Often."

They really were pioneer women, those two, and not just because of the accidental advocating they did for marriage equality. In the 1950s, women were cruisin' for a…well, choosin', and Lucy and Ethel delicately defended the idea that women should have their voices and choices respected.

Well, who better to take our LGBT-cue from than a couple of intrepid and innovative gal pals? In the fall of 2023, Mosaic Players has chosen to present 5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche, a screwball comedy that's zippier than a conveyor belt whipping nuggets of chocolate past a panicky redhead and her hapless sidekick, in collaboration with United Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Waukesha.

In the play, the comestible of choice is a quiche, and its consumers are members of the Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein, a coterie of egg-headed widows who poke fun at the sexism, heterosexism, consumerism, and Communism exuberant in the era.

Come join us for this absurdly adorable and unapologetic declaration of lesbi-independence!
