After a wildly popular, sold-out performance season in 2022, and a sold-out national tour in 2024, this smash-hit production returns to the stage with the brilliant Heather Mitchell reviving her award-winning 'virtuosic performance' of the women who changed the face of the American legal system: the indomitable Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
