BELLA ABZUG: That Beautiful, Ballsy Broad Who Gave 'Em Hell
From a hardworking, New York middle-class Jewish family, to the United States Congress, watch Bella in her own words kick the hell out of the establishment.
Lovingly and painstakingly researched, Bella is brought to life with most of the dialogue coming from books and biographies, interviews, and Bellas own writings and speeches.

As a young woman, she is defiant, rebellious, and determined to break out of her eras gender-chains and follow her own path to become a lawyer. From defending actors accused of communism or putting her life in danger defending a wrongly convicted black man in 1950s Mississippi, there is nothing she wont do or anyone she wont fight for justice. She was a formidable opponent. Once in Congress, despite being surrounded by schlemiels, she fought like hell for the Equal Rights Amendment, childcare, gay rights, the environment, and against racism, ageism, corruption, and more and God help anyone who gets in her way. Whether harassing her staff or demanding President Nixons resignation, we watch her refuse to accept the status quo and tirelessly and exhaustingly wear everyone down with her chutzpah.

Amy Simon has been acting and writing since childhood and producing theater for most of her adult life. Her first play, Cheerios In My Underwear (And Other True Tales Of Motherhood), held the record as the longest-running solo play in Los Angeles. It was broken by SHES HISTORY! her solo play about women who make and made history, which debuted in 2010 at The Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles and has been performed around the country. She is currently writing a Young Adult Womens History book for Bloomsbury Publishing
