Created by Tony-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-nominated Jenn Colella as Carrie Chapman Catt; Hannah Cruz as Inez Millholland; Grace McLean as President Woodrow Wilson; and many others.
