5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche

14 - 17 Oct 2026

5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche

It's 1956. The five committee members of the Susan B Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein are hosting their annual Quiche Breakfast, and you are a member! After the fiasco that Marjorie brought on last year's breakfast as you well remember, the committee are determined to get everything just right. But will the Soviets let them? And what will happen if the world suddenly falls apart? Will everyone.. kiss?

Come see this raucous satire about community and sisterhood, and what it means to stay alive when there are no more eggs left and only each other to lean on. Secrets will be shared, ideas will be brought low, someone may even be murdered. What will these widows do as nuclear disaster heads their way? How will the breakfast go on!? Will they ever see a quiche again...? These are the penetrating questions asked of us and ones we can only hope to answer.

Network Theatre is a community theatre space in the underground railway arches of London Waterloo station.

Run by the volunteers of the resident Network Theatre Company, they produce their own productions of contemporary and classical theatre and provide a unique location for visiting theatre companies and events.

Network Theatre will be joining The Lambeth Fringe for 2025 with unmissable new writing.

Please note this is an ‘umbrella venue’ -the shows have already been programmed as part of the Lambeth Fringe and this space is therefore not available for artists to apply to.
