THE PLAY
Pancakes/Cigarettes is a new play about sexuality, identity, addiction, self-acceptance, and New York City. Mara is a 24 year-old lesbian, fresh out of graduate school. Shortly after her girlfriend, Cori, breaks up with her, Mara finds herself attracted to the most unlikely of people: Rob, her straight, cisgender male coworker. Under the guidance of her friends Kate and Steve, Mara pursues a relationship with Rob, forcing her to question her sexual orientation and her identity.
Pancakes/Cigarettes will be presented one night only - Thursday, January 15th, 2015, at 7:30 pm at Dixon Place. Please help bring Pancakes/Cigarettes to life.
