Sun at 5:00pm

PREVIEW on Friday, October 6

Brava proudly presents the West Coast Premiere of Marga Gomez’s fourteenth one person show, Swimming With Lesbians. This full steam farce takes place aboard “The Celesbian,” regarded as the most notorious cruise ship on the high seas. Throughout the performance Marga morphs into a boatload of hilarious queer characters including: Isabelle a disgraced Lacrosse player yearning for her first Lesbian affair, Captain Debbie who is always ready to go down in the ship, and the outwardly jovial but secretly meek bingo caller Pru Perez. Things veer off course when Captain Debbie orders Pru to conduct pool games on the Lezzo Deck. How these intrepid Lesbians navigate through danger, lust and endless buffets is a seafaring tale that will never be told in Florida. Marga has been subliminally developing Swimming With Lesbians since the 1990’s when she worked as a cruise ship entertainer.
