Fanny Kemble, Part Two

Adventures in Theater History: Philadelphia

Fanny Kemble feels trapped in her new marriage, and learns the stark truth about American slavery and how she herself has become implicated in its horrors. We detail in this episode how, after a long struggle, she finally works her way back to moral clarity and and financial independence. It has a lot to do with the power of Shakespeare, it turns out.
