"The Suffragist" is an original musical developed by former UNI professor Nancy Hill Cobb. It follows Alice Paul, Carrie Chapman Catt, Lucy Burns, Inez Milholland, Ida B. Wells and others as they struggle to justify the means for their ultimate goal: winning the franchise for women.
The world premiere at Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts featured Tony-nominated Nancy Opel, Cathryn Wake, UNI alumna MaKayla McDonald and other Broadway performers.
The Suffragist is directed by Rachel Klein, with book & lyrics by Cavan Hallman and music by Nancy Hill Cobb.
