Description

This US premiere that explores Robert Moses’ legacy is an import from London’s Bridge Theatre, where it played a sold-out run. Starring Ralph Fiennes as Moses, the play is a fictional retelling of the arc of Moses’ career from his rise to power in the 1920s to the public outcry that took place in the 1950s.
