Speranza Theatre Company presents MARY & ELEANOR
The Democratic National Convention in Chicago will be historic, one that will change the course of American history. But this isn't 2024. It's 1932, and while the battle for who will be the Democratic nominee rages on, behind the scenes, the first Democratic woman ever elected to Congress, Jersey City's own Mary Norton, and Eleanor Roosevelt argue about the future of our country, the Democratic party, and women's role in it.

Located at the intersection of Bergen Avenue and Academy Street, Bergen Square is the historical heart of Jersey City. Today it is a vibrant, bustling community where residents, commuters, shoppers, students, and churchgoers come together to form an extraordinary, unique urban enclave.
​
​
Ancient home to the Lenni Lenape and established by the Dutch as the first permanent European settlement in New Jersey in 1660, Bergen Square has welcomed immigrants from around the world for centuries and now flourishes as the historical and cultural wellspring of Jersey City.
