On Stage: Theatre
The Second Mrs. Wilson
9 Livingston Avenue, New Brunswick, NJ
The first
female
president?
It is April, 1915. President
Woodrow Wilson, reeling from
the loss of his wife, meets, falls
in love with and marries Edith
Galt. She very quickly becomes
important -- and influential -- to
her husband, and inconvenient
to his circle of advisors. With
the first World War looming, the
President falls ill, and it is left to
Edith to outsmart the men of
NewJerseyStage.com
Washington who would derail
her beloved husband’s dream
of world peace and the League
of Nations. A fascinating look
at the real life events in which
a woman became the de facto
President of the United States by
Joe DiPietro.
George Street Playhouse presents this November 10 through
November 29.
