Fringe Festival: Queen of Fishtown
4931 Logan Avenue Ste # 102, San Diego
Age Limit: 18+
Cost: $13 - $20
Kathleen Burke is not that mad that her Fishtown neighborhood has gentrified around her, but when she gets the surprise of her life at her 40th birthday party it triggers a high stakes battle to maintain her authenticity while facing even more inevitable change. Profound and profane, Queen of Fishtown is a love letter to the historically overlooked and unappreciated city of brotherly love and working class women everywhere and it's all done in a thick, distinctive Philly dialect audiences cannot get enough of right now. Set on a stoop in Philadelphia, where humor is a defense mechanism and self-care is a punchline, Queen of Fishtown is like Mare of Easttown; but funny and with zero murder.
