Pussy

New Conservatory Theatre Center
25 Van Ness Avenue San Francisco

Two lesbians on the brink of a breakup, one curious landlady and a highly opinionated cat are the stars of Pussy, which originally premiered at San Francisco's DIVAfest with staging by Claire Rice and Julianne Fawsitt, toured to New York and Seattle, and now returns direct from its European debut in London. While their vaguely homophobic but clearly curious Russian landlady snoops around, lesbian couple Leslie and Jo experience tangled heartaches and misadventures. But no one has stronger opinions on the matter than their cat, Pussy. Written and starring Maura Halloran, Pussy's a tale of love and sex, softball and unicorns, gardening and faith, miscommunications, three outsiders and one spectacular pet.
