Summary

Fossils humorously and economically addresses a rarely seen pairing on stage. Carrie , a retired school teacher, has kept her lesbianism hidden since her first lover committed suicide after being found out.. She is enjoying a two-week vacation at a B&B on the shores of Lake Michigan, where she meets Abigail, a retired and widowed economics professor with decidedly Right Wing views. Over a series of short conversations, the women strike up a friendship, confront each other about their opposing views and eventually begin a love affair.
