| From the Playbill article- It appears that the website has not been updated since the show was heavily rewritten prior to its Broadway transfer, as it calls for the elevation of two Black feminists who pushed directly against the racist rhetoric of Alice Paul and Carrie Chapman Catt. These rewrites emphasized both of those women within the show, including cultural icon and protest journalist Ida B. Wells (played by Tony winner Nikki M. James, who received an additional Tony nomination for her performance in Suffs), as well as Civil Rights trailblazers Mary Church Terrell, with her daughter, activist Phyllis Terrell, also being folded into the show as it appears on Broadway. |
