The producers of SUFFS are thrilled to announce that the North American Tour has recouped just 28 playing weeks into its triumphant march across North America.

The acclaimed Tony Award®-winning musical about the passionate American women who fought tirelessly for the right to vote has been seen by more than 375,000 patrons since its launch on September 19, 2025, at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle. The tour is booked through August of 2026 with upcoming engagements in Washington, D.C., Chicago, Memphis, and Fort Worth. For the full route and casting information, please visit suffsmusical.com.

SUFFS reminds us that democracy is not a finished work — it is something each generation must fight to expand, protect, and carry forward,” said lead producers Jill Furman and Rachel Sussman. “As the show says, ‘the young are at the gates,’ and it has been profoundly moving to see audiences across the country respond to that call. This milestone belongs to the extraordinary community of artists, creatives, crew members, partners, investors, and supporters whose belief, flexibility, and commitment helped bring this story to the road and ensure it could be seen by audiences nationwide.”

The milestone comes as SUFFS enters an exciting new chapter, continuing to reach audiences on the road and soon on screens nationwide. This upcoming Monday, May 4 at 7:00 PM, the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical SUFFS, Town Hall, and The Public Theater will partner to present “A Special Screening of Great Performances: SUFFS” at Town Hall, ahead of the national PBS premiere on Friday, May 8 at 9:00 PM ET. The evening will feature a post-screening conversation moderated by Grammy Award-winning actress Phillipa Soo with Tony Award winner Shaina Taub, Tony Award-nominated director Leigh Silverman, and Tony Award winner Nikki M. James, followed by a live piano performance of “Keep Marching” by members of the original Broadway cast. Tickets start at $44 and can be purchased here.

Created by Shaina Taub, the first woman to ever independently win Tony Awards for Best Book and Best Score in the same season, this “thrilling, inspiring and dazzlingly entertaining” (Variety) new musical boldly explores the triumphs and failures of a struggle for equality that’s far from over. It’s a given that the women of the suffragist movement—who called themselves “Suffs” for short—were brilliant, but as they fought tirelessly for the right to vote, they were also flawed, stubborn, passionate and funny. SUFFS tells their story: the remarkable friendships, the heartbreak, and how this movement brought them together—or, in some cases, tore them apart.

SUFFS is winner of the Outer Critics’ Circle Award for Best New Musical, two Drama Desk Awards including Best Score, and is “unquestionably the most emotionally stirring musical of the season” (Chicago Tribune). The successful Broadway production played a 10-month run at the Music Box Theatre from April 18, 2024, through January 5, 2025.
