Women's rights and musicals have come a long way since Glynis Johns, playing Mrs. Banks, a rather clueless mother of two rambunctious children, rang out with the comical anthem "Sister Suffragette" in "Mary Poppins." Today, there's an entire musical that takes a far more sober and historical but equally joyous glance into the woman's suffragette movement.

With the threats against our basic American rights being under fire from the current administration and Congress in Washington D.C., “Suffs” is a call to arms. Sometimes theater needs to remind each of us of our rights and duties as citizens. It was well noted by audience applause when segments of the show reminded us of current conditions and what we need to protect our rights against tyranny. Support this show! 8647 and VOTE BLUE!

Suffs, the current Broadway Series production at Playhouse Square, might be seen as following in the model of Hamilton (or, to a lesser degree, Six). Why? Suffs uses real people and experiences to illustrate its story—in this case, how women campaigned for the right to vote.
Spoiler: It was a major struggle..

For a theater production to leave an impactful, lasting impression, it’s often essential that the message of the show feels relevant to the time in which it’s being produced. Although we may not wish it to be so, the message that fuels the story of “Suffs,” a passionate musical about the women’s suffrage movement and quest for equality, is heart-wrenchingly relevant in 2026.

“Suffs” has been compared to “Hamilton,” and it’s a fair analogy. Both explore important and under-told chapters in American history with contemporary, catchy songs and through the lens of a rivalry. Like Lin-Manuel Miranda, Taub has a knack for eloquently and efficiently describing the political maneuvering and social norms of the time in her lyrics, and she knows her way around a rhyming dictionary, too.
