Chicago Shakespeare Theater produces the world premiere of an electrifying new play about Billie Jean King. Following her path to becoming a sports icon, from her record-breaking victories to her relentless fight for equal pay and equal rights, Billie Jean explores the cost of public battles and private struggles—bringing us closer than ever before to a woman whose battle for identity and equality inspired and continues to inspire generations. Lauren Gunderson, one of the most-produced playwrights in America, and director Marc Bruni (The Great Gatsby, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical) team up to stage this empowering new look at a living legend who shattered glass ceilings on and off the court.
