A NOTE OSKAR EUSTIS

F R O M

Dear Friends,

Welcome to the World Premiere of SUFFS.

Shaina Taub’s wonderful new

musical is entertaining, exciting, funny, moving, and

powerful.

We look for all these qualities when we go to the theater, and SUFFS creates them

with tremendous skill and heart.

But the theater is also a moral enterprise. The narratives we tell ourselves as a society deeply inform

our values, our sense of who we are and what we believe in.

The current overlapping crises in American society are a product of our fractured national narrative:

as a country, we are telling competing stories of ourselves, and that lack of a unied narrative is

dividing our republic in a way we haven’t experienced since the Vietnam War. The stories we tell

ourselves, about ourselves, matter.

In this way, SUFFS is truly extraordinary. In telling the story of

the passage of the 19th Amendment, a milestone in the expansion of democracy, SUFFS asks us to

celebrate the brilliant and courageous women who won that battle, while also seeing their victory in

the larger context of the ghts that remain to be won. Its vision of our country, awed and limited and

oppressive, yet full of extraordinary promise, is inspiring and true. SUFFS reminds us of what is good

and true about America, reveals how far the struggle for equality has to go, and lls me with humility,

hope, and resolution. What more could we ask of our secular church, the theater?

Leigh Silverman has guided and directed this play with tremendous skill, deep compassion, and

wonderful invention. She’s been part of our Public Theater family for a long time, and I have watched

her artistry mature and grow with joy and awe. She is a rare and precious talent.

Leigh and Shaina have put together an extraordinary cast.

Each of these amazing

performers shine in their individual brilliance,

and together

they create an ensemble magnicent in its unity and diversity. The design and production teams

have been woven into SUFFS with a rare depth. My predecessor, George C. Wolfe, used to say that

we become better people in the rehearsal room than we are when we are alone, and rarely have I seen

that more perfectly embodied than in the rehearsal room for SUFFS.

Shaina Taub is an artist who comes along only once in a long while. You are lucky to be in this room

with her, as I count it one of the great blessings of my career to have been present as Shaina has

started what promises to be an extraordinary career.

Rachel Sussman and Jill Furman, our partners on this great enterprise, have been wonderful,

exemplary colleagues, and have been essential to the creation of SUFFS. I am so grateful to them, and

so proud to be associated with them.

Welcome. I think you are going to remember this performance for a long time.

“You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it”—The Talmud

“There never was a young woman yet who did not think that if she had the management of the

work from the beginning, the cause would have been carried long ago. I felt just so when I was

young.” —Susan B. Anthony

WHO’S WHO IN THE CAST

A NOTE FROM THE

DRAMATURG

As a Shakespeare scholar, I am familiar with great works of theater that center intergenerational

conicts that are based on differences in personality, ideology, and strategy. Think, for example, of

the

Henry IV

plays in which Prince Hal must chart his own course between two diametrically opposed

father gures, King Henry IV and Falstaff.

These stories of conict, however, are often

only explored through male protagonists

. In a great deal of theater, when women’s

struggles are depicted, their stories actually recenter men—the men who oppose them; the men who

underestimate them; the men who objectify them.

Part of the brilliance of SUFFS is its unwavering attention to the steadfast

women who fought for suffrage

. While the struggle to pass the Nineteenth Amendment

involved men in all three branches of the U.S. government, SUFFS gives us full, vibrant, and

complicated portraits of the women who led the charge. They were not saints; they were not

necessarily seless; and they were not a monolith. Rather, the suffragists had vastly different

opinions about how best to effect change, and these differences were frequently based on ideological

clashes, as one character says, between “rebel daughter[s] and careful mother[s].”

SUFFS not only shows us the disputes between the rst waves of white suffragists, but also reveals

their tensions with their Black and brown sisters.

Shaina Taub gives us characters

who are true heroines

, but she allows their full humanity to be laid bare—they are three-

dimensional, complicated women who were often willing to put their ght against sexism above a ght

against racism. In a moment when our country is actively debating the meaning and signicance of

structural racism, SUFFS exposes how some of those structures came into place. Black suffragists

were told to wait their turn even as the white ones chanted, “We won’t wait another day.”

Ultimately, SUFFS highlights the impressive virtuosity of this intentionally cast diverse ensemble. The

depth of the history, the rich knottiness of the characters, and the immense beauty of the score serve

to showcase this talented group of performers. We should not have to “wait another day” for more

shows that display the full complexity of women’s histories, lives, and abilities.

SUFFS shows us

the way.
