READING – Vic-to-ri-a by David Watson

Vic-to-ri-a is the story of a revolutionary social reformer, Victoria C. Woodhull and her advocacy of “free love”. Supported by her devoted sister, Tennie, Victoria’s prophetic rise to power (the first woman stockbroker and the first woman to run for the office of the presidency) intersects with her relentless pursuit to expose the powerful clergyman, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher.
Vic-to-ri-a is a drama about the clash of spirit-worlds, claims of morality, and the freedom to love.
