RBG: Of Many, One

After a triumphant and sold-out Australian national tour, the smash hit RBG: Of Many, One finally arrives in Adelaide.

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 U.S. 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 a Sydney Theatre Company-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.

A masterstroke of directorial vision, Priscilla Jackman reconjures RBG in this once-in-a-generation theatrical event that continues to find resonances with the political landscape of the present day. If you haven’t seen it yet, now is your chance to witness the sensation that is “magnificent from start to finish” (Limelight).

“One of the all-time great performances.” — The Sydney Morning Herald
