Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797), pioneer of feminist thought, the woman who dared to demand equality between women and men at a time when the very idea of equality was unacceptable, is seriously ill. Following the birth, she suffered from acute puerperal fever. In the delirium of fever, Wollstonecraft believes she is giving a lecture. Her only audience is, in fact, her newborn daughter, who would become the acclaimed writer Mary Shelley, author of one of the classics of world literature: Frankenstein.
Moving, dramatic, poetic, political, and pedagogical, in this show Wollstonecraft tells her daughter and any other women and men who listen:
“Never allow anyone to make you eat the bitter bread of dependence. Fight, fight to be yourself. And never fear what others might think.”
