by Jerri Shafer - Sep 19, 2020

SOMETHING TO VOTE FOR is a modern morality play, written in 1911 but has profound resonance for today. At the turn of the 20th century, children were dying at an alarming rate from Dysentery, Diphtheria, and Tuberculosis. The source of those diseases was traced back to bacteria infested milk. At the time, the American Dairy industry was unregulated and sanitation practices were careless and irresponsible. At the same time, the Anti-Women’s Suffrage movement was gaining momentum and it looked like women were never going to get the vote. It is with that backdrop that Charlotte Perkins Gilman wrote SOMETHING TO VOTE FOR. Once again, Red Herring sets themselves apart from other productions, by providing a LIVE STREAMED stage reading of this play. Encore broadcasts will be happening on Friday, Sept 25 and Sunday, Sept 27 - both at 8:00 PM. Tickets can be purchased online at: https://tinyurl.com/y4vl4a3v.
