RBG: Of Many, One at Playhouse Theatre

If you've ever heard of the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg from American political news, late-night talk shows or seen the 2018 documentary RBG or the 2018 biography On the Basis of Sex, then this critically acclaimed play might be right up your alley.

This one will be a Saturday matinee so plenty of time to catch up before or after depending on how people are feeling.

I have a C reserve ticket in the Dress Circle, seat CC71. There are still a couple going for $105 but plenty more for $125.

Running Time Approximately 100 minutes (no interval)

The brilliant Heather Mitchell will be reviving her award-winning and critically acclaimed “virtuosic performance” (The Conversation) of the woman who changed the face of the American legal system: the indomitable Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The second woman to be appointed to the US Supreme Court, Ruth Bader Ginsburg was both a trailblazer in the American judiciary and a fierce advocate for gender equality and reproductive rights. Her life is brought to the stage in an STC commissioned play by the extraordinary pen of Olivier Award-winning Australian playwright and expert legal mind, Suzie Miller (Prima Facie). This story chronicles Ginsburg’s wins and dissents, traces her steps forward and the steps back, and brings you right into the room with Ruth at the most pivotal moments of her life.
