It’s 1956 and the Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein are having their annual quiche breakfast. As the assembled “widows” await the announcement of the society’s prize-winning quiche, the atomic bomb sirens sound! Has the Communist threat come to pass? How will the “widows” respond as their idyllic town and lifestyle faces attacks?
Winner of the 2012 NYC International Fringe Festival as Best Overall Production, 5 Lesbians Eating A Quiche is a hilarious play from across the pond and will be a delightful trip to the theatre in the cold light of January. It’s a tasty recipe of hysterical laughs, sexual innuendos, unsuccessful repressions, and delicious discoveries.

 Lucy Moss has been a member of Tower Theatre since 2018. She’s an actor, writer and costume stylist and has been lucky enough to play a variety of roles from Marina in The Mirror Crack’d to W2 in Play. Lucy’s favourite quiche is French onion with a watercress salad, with her dog Sally nearby to help with any leftovers. |

She also took part in a Screen Acting course at City Academy and a Theatre course at the University of Warwick.

Most recently, her credits include Flare Path (Tower Theatre), Why Won’t Someone Shag Me (Old Red Lion Theatre), Swipe (Camden Fringe, Hen and Chickens), and an upcoming feature film Seeing Red. Her favourite quiche, you ask? Much to the society’s dismay, is a Quiche Lorraine! |
