Bake Sale was a collaborative high point for The Fifth Floor and experimental local theater that year in SF. After first receiving company acclaim for our first production of Chuck Mee’s Orestes the year before, Kenn, Ed and the crew started picking through the transcripts of the Waco fiasco through a Velvet Underground haze… and Bake Sale premiered at Cell Space November 1996 with Helen Shumaker in the role of Janet Reno. It had teeth and hopefully some of that comes through in this documentation from the second staging in 1997 at SOMAR with Celia Shuman as Janet Reno.
