In the regional premiere of Ann Timmons’ It’s My Party! that tells the story of women’s fight to vote, history reminds that justice wins, but not without turbulence.
If anyone’s feeling beaten by today’s recent legislation, Echo Theatre’s newest production can inspire and ignite. Based on actual historical women, the story follows young suffragists who bring a different voice to the uphill battle of passing the 19th Amendment.
