Florida Studio Theatre (FST) is proud to officially announce the full event calendar for The Suffragist Project: Celebrating 100 Years of the Woman’s Right to Vote. This unparalleled city-wide commemoration of the 19th Amendment has brought together over 55 community organizations, each creating their own artistic, educational, and cultural programming. Inspired by this historic milestone, community partners will host a wide spectrum of events throughout Sarasota and Manatee, including performances, visual art exhibitions, lectures, panel discussions, and arts-in-education programming for youth. The Suffragist Project will culminate in August 2020 with The Dangerous Ladies Festival, a weekend-long celebration of the new theatrical work created over the course of The Project. The Festival will include World Premiere public readings of four new Suffragist Project-commissioned plays written by playwrights Rachel Lynett, Jacqueline Goldfinger, Mark St. Germain, and Sandy Rustin. The Festival will also feature the presentation of Dangerous Ladies: The Voices of the Suffragists, a devised theatrical piece created by Kate Alexander and Meg Gilbert.
