Sapph-isticated Histories: Women Across Time

There's no time like the present to celebrate queer women from the past.
About this Event

This March, SMH will stand for Sapphics Making History, when Violet Surprise Theatre presents six short plays about women who refine, define, and redefine the expression "out with the old."

Whether spotlighting women once considered yester-gay's news or reminiscing about days gone bi, Sapph-isticated Histories: Women Across Time honors the formidable fortitude of our foremothers, both factual figures from history and fictional figures of our playwrights' own creation.

When it comes to validating our voices, Violet Surprise is no shrinking violet. We believe that respectful, realistic representation is not only valuable—it's vital.

Sapph-isticated Histories: Women Across Time will be presented at Gerber/Hart Library, an archive dedicated to the preservation of LGBTQIA+ history, located at 6500 N. Clark Street in Chicago, on Friday, March 28, at 7:30 pm.
