Sapph-isticated Histories: Women Across Time

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 St. Peter's United Church of Christ, an opening and affirming congregation, located at 8013 Laramie Avenue in Skokie, on Saturday, March 22, at 3 pm and 7 pm, and Saturday, March 29, at 3 pm and 7 pm.

Parking is available in the lot directly east of the building, and the church is easily accessible by public transportation, located across from the Skokie Library just a few blocks west of the Oakton stop on the CTA Yellow Line. Wheelchair accessibility for the Lanford Fellowship Hall is through the Laramie Street entrance, including a drop-off area and ramps to navigate short stairs.
