Suffs at Orpheum Theatre San Francisco

The suffragettes musical

San Francisco, SUFFS is coming!

{Shaina Traub, alongside director Leigh Silverman, musical supervisor Andrea Grody, and choreographer Mayte Natalio, has created a theatrical triumph - and the proof is in the accolades|If you had any doubt about whether you want to see SUFFS. SUFFS’ award-shelf is groaning heavily under the load of two Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, and two Drama Desk Awards. There is a stunning irony in the fact that Shaina Taub became the first woman ever to independently win Tony Awards, and is the second woman in Broadway history to write the lyrics and book, compose the music, and also star in her own creation. The news you have been anticipating has finally landed: you’ll be able to catch SUFFS right here in San Francisco!

SUFFS tells the fantastic tale of the American suffragettes that fought tirelessly for the right of women to vote. The wonderful, impassioned, intense, and funny theatrical production boldly delves into the triumphs and failures of the American women’s suffrage movement with music that both moves and tickles the funny bone, great storytelling that is as affecting as it is hilarious, and riveting choreography that is much more than just dance moves.

SUFFS premiered in April 2024 at the Music Box Theatre to massive critical acclaim. Reviewers found it to be intriguing, life-changing, memorable, and masterfully created, not a woman-against-man type of show, but rather a wonderful probe of the below-the-surface workings of both the suffragette movement and women alike. SUFFS ticks all the boxes: from ingenious storytelling to musical opulence, from outstanding performances of the insanely talented cast to its magnificent movement between intensity, humor, anguish, grit, and exuberance. Without a doubt: SUFFS is not only standing firm for a vote, but for a position among Broadway’s favorites.
