The Bee's Knees is a new play by Judy Reynolds that explores the challenges faced by women in politics during the Roaring Twenties. Set against the backdrop of Canada’s first female parliamentary candidates, it follows two sisters, Bernie and Dolores, as they navigate a tumultuous political campaign filled with personal and societal obstacles. The production features an ensemble cast and original jazz-inspired music, highlighting the timeless struggles for equality and representation. As the narrative unfolds, it delves into the parallels between the 1920s and today's political landscape, prompting reflection on the ongoing pursuit of women's leadership.
