Prepare to "duck and cover" with Vern, Lulie, Wren, Ginny, and Dale in a rollicking exploration of forbidden love, egg worship, and radioactive fallout.

Brianna Battista, Courtney Hoerner, Lisa Marie Leone, Laura Lonski, and Shayna Raichilson-Zadok

All productions start at 8pm, but please come early to meet and greet with the members of the Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein! Doors will open at 7:30pm.

"Dishes up high-spirited theatrical comfort food with a bit of a saucy kick." - Chicago Tribune

"Sharp, smart and hysterically funny." Time Out Chicago

"Your relationship with quiche will never be the same again." - Newcity

"Its raw and magnetic dementia seems destined to attract a cult following." - The New York Times

"A farcical romp behind whose silliness lies some social and political observation that remains potent even in the dawning age of legalized gay marriage" - nytheatre.com

(4 1/2 out of five stars) "The raucously off-kilter humor never obscures the more serious grace notes and sub-texts...It is silly, it is rude, it is laugh-out-loud funny, and it's all over too soon." - Atlanta Theater Buzz

"It's been weeks--maybe months--since I've really laughed at a play. I mean, belly-achin', nearly-wet-myself laughed..." - Chicago Theatre Addict
