VICTORIA WOODHULL PLAY OPENS THIS SUNDAY AT HOBGOBLIN PLAYHOUSE

The Terrible Legend of Victoria Woodhull

view project

Los Angeles, CA, June 9th, 2018. The Owl & the Pussycat Theatre Co. are proud to announce “The Terrible Legend of Victoria Woodhull” will officially opens this Sunday, June 10th @ 6:00pm for the Hollywood Fringe Festival at The Hobgoblin Playhouse – 6520 Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90028.

Many terrible legends have been told about the infamous Victoria C. Woodhull, the first woman to run for President of the United States in 1872. In this one woman show, a well-meaning Canadian actress (Ashley Ford) in a misguided attempt at method acting, will summon the spirit of the deceased Woodhull in a seance, in order to tell her tale from beyond the grave, in the light of today’s #MeToo movement, and set the record straight.

Ms. Ashley Ford, who plays Victoria Woodhull in this epic one woman show, explains, “The only terrible thing about it, is that no one knows who she is!” Or certainly a shocking number of people, as it would seem Victoria was deliberately left out the history books by her fellow suffragettes – come down to The Hobgoblin Playhouse, a 100 year old abandoned theatre right along Hollywood Boulevard’s Walk of Fame, to learn how and why from the ghost of Victoria C. Woodhull herself.
