“Fleabag” - (National Theater Live - 3 hours) - Back by popular demand for two encore screenings! Written and performed by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag, Killing Eve), “Fleabag” is a rip-roaring look at some sort of woman living her sort of life. “Fleabag” may seem oversexed, emotionally unfiltered and self-obsessed, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. With family and friendships under strain and a guinea pig café struggling to keep afloat, Fleabag suddenly finds herself with nothing to lose.  Thursday, Aug. 10 at 2 and 7 p.m.  Tickets: adults $15,  members $13, and youth $5.
