This is a strong, beautifully ambitious and sophisticated play with dual storylines set that kept me at the edge of my seat as the stakes were so high for the lesbian characters in the 1950s. What courage the women showed despite human frailty and fear. The contemporary storyline intelligently contrasts the relative privilege queer women now experience at the same time that Trump's doctrine of hate pervades every aspect of their psyche. A play with historical significance, flesh and blood characters you care about, and provocative themes.
