RAINBOW ENTERTAINMENT BRINGS THE ENTERTAINMENT TO PTOWN SUMMER 2025!
PORTRAITURE by Margaret Van Sant
The lesbian power couple, Gertrude Stein and Alice B, Toklas, in a questionable threesome with Mabel Dodge Luhan, take the stage in this witty and comic revision of artistic history.
Set during an arts tour of the Rare Book Room at Yale University, the play takes you back to the high time of lesbian love in Paris. Gertrude, Alice, and Mabel come alive, take over the tour, and move out of their frames to set the record straight on who loved whom, who wrote what, who was the better artist, and who in the heck put them in the wrong frames. And as a referee for all their battles, tour docent Sylvia Santos has her own motive for finding out the truth from the women.
The play has just finished a critically successful run at the Cape Cod Museum of Art and the Cotuit Center for the Arts and is a perfect addition to Women’s Week in Provincetown,
