Friday, March 22, 7:30 PM

Rosendale Theatre, 408 Main Street, Rosendale (845-658-8989)

An evening to celebrate Women’s History Month with a provocative theatrical program exploring why one Suffrage leader was written out of history. The background drama of the Suffrage movement is brought to life through compelling dialogue that explores the split between two of the three founders of the Suffrage movement. The rupture between Susan B. Anthony and Matilda Joslyn Gage is revealed in a reading of their correspondence by two dynamic performers; Sally Roesch Wagner, executive director of the Gage Center in Fayetteville, and Deborah Hughes, president and CEO of the Susan B. Anthony House in Rochester.

After the performance, the audience is invited and encouraged to join the dialogue.

This live performance will benefit the Susan B. Anthony House, Matilda Joslyn Gage Foundation, and Votes for Women 2020.
