New York City, 1932: Eva Le Gallienne is trying to save her theatre company from the jaws of the Depression by mounting an innovative new production of*Alice in Wonderland. She agrees to give a radio interview for the sake of publicity, but while revisiting the moments that shaped her career, she struggles with the need to keep a significant secret: she and her leading lady are in love. As Eva's work careens toward catastrophe, she fights to preserve her dream of a people's theatre-but will she destroy the people she loves in the process? The true story of one of the 20th century's most remarkable artists,*The Queen of Fourteenth Street*reverberates powerfully today, as the American theatre faces an uncertain future and LGBTQ rights are once again under attack.
