All Things Equal: The Life & Trials of RBG
Advertisement
See the journey of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bater Ginsberg (RBG) come to life over the course of ninety fascinating and often funny minutes in this stage play written by Tony Award®-winning playwright Rupert Holmes. This courageous icon of down-to-earth American justice has a long, complex story that must be told, and should be heard.
Starring the acclaimed actress Michelle Azar, the play presents an intimate portrayal of a true American original. Holmes invites the audience into the intimacy of RGB’s life and her many trials: losing her mother the day before she graduated as valedictorian of her Brooklyn high school ... being one of only nine young women studying law at Harvard while also raising a daughter and helping her husband battle cancer ... fighting for women's rights in the 1970’s before condescending all-male courts ... and taking courageous stands for human rights as a voice of reason amid a splintering and increasingly politicized Supreme Court.
Award-winning and multi-disciplined writer and composer Rupert Holmes brings the same empathy and ear to “All Things Equal” that he has lent to stage adaptations of Oscar Wilde (for the British Museum), John Grisham, Agatha Christie, and many others. He brilliantly captures RBG’s compelling life, leaving no question why she became a cross-generational role model that inspired tens of millions of Americans and a worldwide following.
