"...The Lady Was a Gentleman's Director Kate Motzenbacker says, "Art about queer women's history tends to focus on two subjects: unadulterated misery or finding true love despite the odds. What a treat to work on this light, laugh-out-loud comedy about a well-meaning lothario!" Written by Barbara Kahn, a playwright known for the dramatization of the forgotten stories of women, particularly lesbians, this play definitely allows the lesbian community the opportunity to see their history onstage, showing audiences in general the richness of lesbian life both past and present."
