The brilliant Heather Mitchell will be reviving her award-winning and critically acclaimed performance 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, Ginsburg (pictured) 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.
State Theatre Company Artistic Director Petra Kalive says “this is a performance not to be missed”.
"The phrase tour de force is often overused – but here, it’s entirely deserved," Ms Kalive says.
"Heather Mitchell delivers an extraordinary portrayal that truly honours the remarkable legacy of Ruth Bader Ginsburg."
RGB: Of Many, One, runs from 10 April to 2 May, 2026, at the Dunstan Playhouse, Adelaide Festival Centre. More information and tickets can be found here.
