\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n Hillary Clinton<\/strong><\/a> and Malala Yousafzai<\/strong><\/a> will be making their Broadway debuts\u2026 as producers!<\/p>\n The former Secretary of State and the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate have joined the producing team of the upcoming Broadway musical Suffs<\/em><\/strong>, which will open next year.<\/p>\n Suffs<\/em>, written by Shaina Taub<\/strong><\/a>, originally ran off-Broadway last year at the Public Theater and now it will play at the Music Box Theatre with an official opening night on April 18.<\/p>\n It\u2019s 1913 and the women\u2019s movement is heating up in America, anchored by the suffragists \u2014 \u201cSuffs,\u201d as they call themselves \u2014 and their relentless pursuit of the right to vote. Reaching across and against generational, racial, and class divides, these brilliant, flawed women entertain and inspire us with the story of their hard-won victory in an ongoing fight. So much has changed since the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment over a century ago, and yet we\u2019re reminded sometimes we need to look back, in order to march fearlessly into the future.<\/p>\n Keep reading to find out more\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI am thrilled to join with the team behind Suffs <\/em>in bringing Shaina Taub<\/strong>\u2019s remarkable musical about the unsung heroes of the American women\u2019s suffrage movement to the Broadway stage \u2013 where it rightly belongs,\u201d said Hillary Rodham Clinton<\/strong>. \u201cAnd I can\u2019t wait for audiences to experience this soul-stirring slice of long-overlooked American history; both entertaining and enlightening, Suffs <\/em>paints a vivid picture of the necessary battles for democracy and equality that are still being fought today.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI loved Suffs <\/em>when I saw it last year at The Public Theater,\u201d said Malala Yousafzai<\/strong>. \u201cMany women around the world are still fighting for equality \u2014 and we draw inspiration and strength through learning the stories of those who came before us. I am honored to support Shaina <\/strong>and this production, and I hope Suffs<\/em> echoes beyond Broadway to reach audiences worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n Casting and ticketing information will be announced at a later date. The off-Broadway production featured Taub <\/strong>leading the cast alongside Tony winner Nikki M. James<\/strong><\/a> and Tony nominees Phillipa Soo<\/strong><\/a> and Jenn Colella<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n An exciting movie star is heading to Broadway<\/a> next year as well!<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n
