Quickies 13

Now in their 13th year, Live Girls! celebrates its theatrical bat mitzvah with a “Quickies” series devoted to stories of life transitions and coming of age. The lineup features two shows commissioned from the company’s “Cupcake” reading series: Maggie Lee’s The Sunshower Bride, about a zoomorphic pre-wedding revelation, and Bang-Bang Choo-Choo Train by Elizabeth Heffron, a bittersweet scene between a vulnerable mother and her grounded daughter. With additional tales of reincarnation, video games, grade school acquaintances and a girl who falls in love with Frosty the Snowman, the series represents some of the city’s fiercest female theatrical talents and promises to be an evening as wild and emotional as puberty.
