Great Performances presents "Suffs"

Witness the American women's suffrage movement in this Tony-winning Broadway musical created by Tony Award winner Shaina Taub.

FRIDAY, MAY 8 at 8:30PM

Featuring book, music and lyrics by Tony Award winner Shaina Taub, this musical recorded from Broadway in December 2024 tells the story of the American suffragist movement and the remarkable friendships, heartbreak, and action that brought women together – or, in some cases, tore them apart. The large ensemble cast includes Taub as Alice Paul, Tony winners Nikki M. James as Ida B. Wells and Emily Skinner as Alva Belmont/Phoebe Burn, Tony nominee Jenn Colella as Carrie Chapman Catt, Hannah Cruz as Inez Millholland, Grace McLean as President Woodrow Wilson and many others.

Great Performances: Suffs is part of “Broadway’s Best” from Great Performances on PBS.  Upcoming installments include “Irving Berlin’s Top Hat” on May 15, “And Evening with Nicole Scherzinger” on May 22 and “Broadway Musicals: A Jewish Legacy” on May 31.
