Amelia Earhart Was a Lesbian is a 90-minute two-hander about authorship, obsession, repression, and the impossible act of choosing an ending.

​

The play follows Sam and Chris, ex–best friends and former writing partners,

face to face for the first time in three years.

 

Together they race against the clock to protect Sam’s authorship of her screenplay

before a career altering meeting.  

​

The script in question? A homoerotic reimagining of Amelia Earhart and Eleanor Roosevelt’s friendship that's hitting far too close to home.

​

What follows is a chaotic, intimate unravelling of ambition, power, memory, queer erasure, and years of unresolved tension that can no longer hide between the lines.
