5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche (review)

THE PLAY: The audience is treated as members of the 1956 meeting of “widows,” who are celebrating the year’s best quiche.

 

THE PRODUCTION: With little genuine comic content, this silly script borders on absurd. So, it’s up to the cast to help it rise above inane. Despite all of the lame double entendres about despising meat in their quiche, this frantic cast provided plenty of ham (Danielle Williams is a mugging standout). Director Dexter Ramey has managed a manic mood to help disguise the fact that there’s really not much to work with. D. Mark Souza’s period dresses are colorful and fun.

 

THE POINT: Despite the production’s frantic efforts, this silly celebration of the symbolic quiche lacks anything genuinely comic to chew on.
