Following a sold-out, extended run at The Public Theater, Suffs arrives on Broadway — 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 over a century ago, and yet we’re reminded sometimes we need to look back, in order to march fearlessly into the future.
"I feel the show was both very entertaining and thought provoking. The only negative is that it has now closed. I heard that it is being filmed for PBS and believe that that is an excellent decision so that it will live on."

A must see for our time.
"I read the book. The musical is a vivid interpretation of the story of the success of the Suffragettes. The author got it so right. This is a must- see musical for all generations, especially young ones. I was lucky to see it in NY.
I hope there will be a traveling company so more people can enjoy the production. "

I should have worn my pussy hat!
"Shaina Taub (a fellow Vermonter) is so talented. What perfect timing to help advance the cause of women’s rights at this precarious moment. And to think we saw a woman run for president while her play ran! She deserves all her awards and I expect great things to come. Congrats to Shaina and to a wonderful cast! So glad we got to see and appreciate your work. "

Wow!!!
"I was concerned I would fall asleep once I settled into the warm theater after a long day, but NO WAY! From the first number, I was hooked! The cast, the music, the storyline… AMAZING! I found myself wishing I came to this show the day after the 2024 election results. I was curious what the vibe was then? It must’ve been so healing and refreshing. “Progress is possible but not guaranteed. Keep Marching!”
