Suffs at Providence Performing Arts Center

The suffragettes musical

Gear up and get ready, Providence, the suffragettes are coming!

{Shaina Traub, alongside director Leigh Silverman, musical supervisor Andrea Grody, and choreographer Mayte Natalio, has created a theatrical production unlike any other - and the proof is in the accolades|If you had any doubt about whether Shaina Traub has really done it this time. With a highly accomplished creative team by her side, she created something truly unmissable. SUFFS’ award-shelf is groaning heavily under the load of two Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, and two Drama Desk Awards. There is a stunning irony in the fact that Shaina Taub became the first woman ever to independently win Tony Awards, and is the second woman in Broadway history behind the lyrics, book, and music, while also starring in the production. The best news of the year, however, is that you’ll be able to experience SUFFS right here in Providence!

SUFFS tells the fantastic historical story of the fierce women behind the suffragette movement of the early 20th century. The thrilling, passionate, audacious, and funny theatrical sensation boldly explores the victories and defeats of the American women’s suffrage movement with music that both stirs emotions and tickles the funny bone, awe-inspiring storytelling that is as poignant as it is funny, and breathtaking choreography that is much more than just dance moves.

SUFFS premiered in April 2024 at the Music Box Theatre, receiving rave reviews all around. Reviewers found it to be intriguing, inspiring, unforgettable, and masterfully created, not a woman-against-man type of show, but rather an incredible examination of the below-the-surface workings of both the suffragette movement and women alike. SUFFS has it all: from ingenious storytelling to musical magic, from extraordinary stagecraft of the stellar cast to its magnificent modulations between ferocity, hilarity, sadness, courage, and exuberance. Without a doubt: SUFFS is not only fighting for a vote, but for a permanent place among the greats of Broadway.
