Playbill: “Voting rights are a central theme of Suffs. We are excited to partner with When We All Vote to remind audiences of their constitutional right the suffragists fought so valiantly for over a century ago,” Suffs lead producers Jill Furman and Rachel Sussman said in a statement. “In this crucial election year, citizens need to use their voices and fight for the causes they care about, and we hope Suffs inspires them to do just that.”

This show is a great example of theater making a positive impact on the greater world around us. One of the reasons that I love the theater is because in so many ways, the stories we tell can impact people and communities and make changes to the world that we live in. There are important stories that need to be told and without the theater, many of them would disappear. The musical Suffs is one such story. This show is bringing the story of the Women's Suffrage movement to a huge audience in a way that is significantly more meaningful than when people simply learned about it and then forgot about it in middle school. However, the way they are partnering with When We All Vote is making this all the more impactful. They are now able to not only tell their story, but also make an actual, effective change in their community.
