Minnesota State University, Mankato Department of Theatre and Dance News Release

MANKATO – Minnesota State University, Mankato’s Department of Theatre & Dance continues the 2022-2023 Theatre Season with “Last Summer at Bluefish Cove” in the Andreas Theatre at the Early Center for the Performing Arts.

A group of queer women spend their summers together at the remote fictional Long Island seaside town of Bluefish Cove. Their peaceful and quiet world is turned upside down when Eva shows up and the group must navigate new truths. This story reveals the complexity of women’s lives, and unapologetically celebrates the strength of the women who dared to love whom they loved during a hostile time and place.

This production will include a collaboration with the Women’s Center and the Department of Sociology, and the public is invited to a discussion after the Wednesday and Thursday performances.

“Last Summer at Bluefish Cove” runs Nov. 16-19, 2022, at 7:30 p.m. in the Andreas Theatre at the Earley Center for Performing Arts, Minnesota State University, Mankato. Tickets are $10 regular, $9 for seniors ages 65 and older and children under 16; and $5 for Minnesota State Mankato students. 

The box office is open 4-6 p.m. weekdays in the lobby of the Performing Arts Center. Tickets are available online at MSUTheatre.com or over the phone at 507-389-6661.
