The audacious story of the first woman to run for President. They called her Mrs. Satan!
In 1872, in the shadow of Abraham Lincoln's assassination, the irrepressible Victoria Woodhull ran for President of the United States of America with the help of the founder of the Republican Party, the suffrage movement, and a rags-to-riches story that made her a media sensation. But by the night of the election even her allies would try to erase her from history.
Adam Bailey, a celebrated storyteller, with work focusing on strange-but-true stories from history including Franz Ferdinand Must Die (★★★★ CBC), The Truth™ (Jenny Award Winner: Solo Performer), The Life Henri (Outstanding Production, Outstanding New Play, NOW Magazine), and The Assassination of Robert Ford (Best of Fringe Winner, Toronto), shines a light on Victoria Woodhull in their own unique style; breakneck, fascinating, and thoroughly contemporary.

"The charming and imaginative Adam Bailey connects" - Glenn Sumi
"Adam Bailey is in great form, as always, keeping up with his specialty in fast paced historical fiction. Following Victoria Woodhull’s life from a kaleidoscope of different perspectives and jumping throughout her life, from feminist activist to stockbroker to magnetic healer to presidential nominee, Adam keeps the energy up and ties together the threads into a coherent and engaging picture of this woman’s life" - The Jenny Revue (Winnipeg)
