The play does make some good observations about the difficulties of being gay in a homophobic society, as the other women explain to Eva just what she'll be giving up if she stays with Lil -- including, possibly, her relationship with her parents. And there was one moment when I fully believed in the reality of Lil's cancer -- when Denise Perry-Olson wept alone after the others had gone.
Paradoxically, while Last Summer at Bluefish Cove became flimsier and flimsier as it went along, its feminist message came through more and more strongly. It wasn't the playwright's insight that accomplished this, but the irrepressible talent -- the sheer woman power -- of the cast.
