The Queen of Fourteenth Street by Barrie Kreinik

Why have I not heard of this theatrical lesbian?
This is an amazing play about Eva Le Gallienne, a queer writer, director, and producer, who founded the Civic Repertory Theater in NYC in the 1920s with the dream of brining theater to the people. Also she had so many affairs. Incredible production. Highly recommend.

Very very good. It was good all the way through but the last essay took it to another level.

Wow, this was like a masterclass in how to write a romance with pacing I hate.
Loved the stuff about losing a queer household.
The pacing made no sense, kinda hated it.

I liked this, it was fun.
Not nearly as much as I liked Mimosa.
