Bull in a China Shop, now receiving its #TCTheater premiere with Fortune's Fool Theatre, tells the story of an early 20th Century president of Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts, the first women's college in the country. As an alum of College of St. Benedict, the first women's college west of the Mississippi, it's an interesting look at the history of higher education for women. But it's not just about that, it's the true story of two women in a long term committed relationship at a time when that wasn't accepted or talked about. 38 years fly by in less than 90 minutes of short scenes between these two women and other women at the college, depicting a complicated, intense, loving relationship. In what seems to be a new trend with Fortune's Fool, the show is free to attend (donations gladly accepted), and as always there are snacks at the Hive, so there's really no reason not to go see it!
Continuing through September 27.
