They Were Roommates

Rebel Violets Theatre

A heartwarming, wholesome tale of friendship and longing. This found family story about three queer people navigating the changing group dynamics of their friendship. Vesper, a financially struggling freelance writer, allows their newly single best friend and secret crush, Astrid, to move in with them, ignoring the voice of reason in mutual bestie Nova. The two friends learn to live together and navigate boundaries and sticky emotions. Will this tear their friendship apart, or could it be a dream come true? This short one act written and directed by black queer women, and performed by an all QBIPOC, AFAB cast offers a unique perspective in the queer community.
