How will they do it
when it's never been done?
Following a sold-out extended run at the Public Theater, Suffs arrives on Broadway this spring—and not a moment too soon. From the singular mind of Shaina Taub, this “remarkable, epic new musical” (Variety) boldly explores the victories and failures of a struggle for equality that’s far from over.
It’s 1913, and the women’s movement is heating up in America, anchored by the suffragists—“Suffs,” as they call themselves—and their relentless pursuit of the right to vote. Reaching across and against generational, racial, and class divides, these brilliant, flawed women entertain and inspire us with the story of their hard-won victory in an ongoing fight. So much has changed since the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment more than a century ago, yet we’re reminded sometimes that we need to look back in order to march fearlessly into the future.
