“The Beebo Brinker Chronicles pries open the closet door and reveals the characters trapped behind it.” – BackStage

Based on the groundbreaking, award-winning pulp novels of the 50s and 60s, The Beebo Brinker Chronicles follows the lives and loves of friends in pre-Stonewall Greenwich Village. Beth and Laura, secret lovers in college, still pine for each other. Before they can reunite, they find themselves entangled in a web spun by Beebo Brinker, a butch denizen of the underground bar scene. The play, originally produced by Lily Tomlin and Jane Wagner, celebrates the era when “the love that dares not speak its name” began breaking the old rules.
