Last week, Suffs also held a special first-look event at Cooper Union’s historic Great Hall, a venue at which suffragists Alice Paul and Ida B. Wells both gave speeches over 100 years ago.

The event featured members of the cast and creative team, and included performances of four songs from the musical, “The March,” “Great American Bitch,” “This Girl,” and “Keep Marching.” Check out video of the performances here.

About Suffs 

From the singular mind of Shaina Taub, this new musical 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 over a century ago, and yet we’re reminded sometimes we need to look back, in order to march fearlessly into the future.

Suffs will star book writer, composer, and lyricist Shaina Taub in the role of Alice Paul, making her only the second woman in history to write the book, music,lyrics and star in her own Broadway musical.
