“19 is a rousing, ovation generating musical, full of history and dance.” — William Powell, DC Metro Theatre Arts
19: The Musical is the dynamic and little-known story of Alice Paul, Ida B. Wells, Susan B. Anthony, Carrie Chapman Catt, Inez Milholland and the other suffragists who fought to get women the right to vote — the 19th Amendment. The inspirational story of these fearless women is brought to life through jazz, traditional musical standards style, spoken word, and hints of gospel. Alice Paul and the suffragists' fight for equality have been re-imagined for a new generation with a poignant and uplifting message that will resonate for years to come.
Book and lyrics by Jennifer Schwed and Doug Bradshaw. Music composed and arranged by Charlie Barnett.
