Suffs Playbill - Opening Night
Suffs
Broadway Musical

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 epic new musical boldly explores the victories and failures of a struggle for equality that’s far from over.

SYNOPSIS:

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 over a century ago, and yet we’re reminded sometimes we need to look back, in order to march fearlessly into the future
