Suffs
About the Show
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 taking shape 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.

About the Theatre
Music Box Theatre
239 W 45th St
New York, NY 10036
The Music Box theatre was built by prominent theatrical producer Sam H. Harris in 1921. His built the theatre specifically for his good friend Irving Berlin, to house Berlin’s famed Music Box Revues. The theatre had many successful shows including Chicago, the Maurine Dallas Watkins play that served as the basis for the hit musical. The Music Box was also a favorite house for Cole Porter and George and Ira Gershwin.
This theatre has been lauded over the years as the “best looking house on Broadway” and is one of the few Broadway houses to have only been home to a legitimate theatre. The seats in the theatre are also unique, due to their unusually large and round shape. The Music Box was co-owned by Irving Berlin’s estate and the Shubert Organization until the Shuberts assumed full ownership in 2007.
