Bannon read excerpts of her work and discussed the effects of her writing on her own life and the lives of her readers. In April 2008, Bannon appeared with the Seattle Women's Chorus in a performance called "Vixen Fiction". However, one of the writers said, "I just felt like, how can you turn these people into a joke? I mean, these people are real people! Why would I direct a play where I held the characters in some sort of contempt or felt that they were ridiculous? We are allowed to do something else besides camp." The stage adaptation of The Beebo Brinker Chronicles was produced by Lily Tomlin and Jane Wagner, and it won the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Award for "fair, accurate, and inclusive" portrayals of gay and lesbian people in New York Theater. They were tempted to make it more appealing by turning to camp for comedy. The play's writers commented on the difficulty of lesbian-themed works finding financial success. The Play earned cult status, and was successful enough to be moved Off Broadway for another acclaimed ten-week run in 2008.

The writers used material from I Am a Woman, Women in the Shadows and Journey to a Woman to predominantly positive reviews. In 2007, an off-off-Broadway cohort named The Hourglass Group adapted The Beebo Brinker Chronicles into a play ( directed by Leigh Silverman ), in a production that ran for a month.


Written by Ann Bannon from 1957 to 1962, the books were distributed as pulp - meaning they were printed on cheap paper, were peddled at drugstores and bus stations, and received no mainstream press - but sold hundreds of thousands of copies. Chapman’s play, another character tells the audience that Beebo walks “with a slight swagger, her hands thrust into the pockets of her pants.” The Beebo Brinker Chronicles : that’s the umbrella title for six novels that are a touchstone of lesbian culture.
