What card-carrying lesbian hasn’t read The Beebo Brinker Chronicles, Ann Bannon’s series of groundbreaking 1950s lesbian pulp fiction novels (as if we had to explain what they were)? See your favorite lovelorn lesbian characters come to life in the new stage adaptation of The Beebo Brinker Chronicles, at the Fourth Street Theatre starting Sept 27 (featuring a special audience talk-back with writer Ann Bannon after that night’s performance). Set in pre-Stonewall Greenwich Village, The Beebo Brinker Chronicles celebrates the era when “the love that dares not speak its name” began breaking the old rules. Fueled by booze and furtive sex, the play follows the lives and loves of Laura, Beth and Beebo as they navigate uncharted territories of desire.
