About this book
In the early 20th century, as the women’s suffrage movement gained momentum, voices advocating for equality grew louder. "Women for Votes" by Elizabeth Hughes captures this pivotal era through a comedic lens, highlighting the absurdities faced by women striving for the right to vote. The play cleverly intertwines the personal struggles of the Tilsbury family with broader societal debates on gender roles and civic participation. With sharp wit and engaging dialogue, Hughes addresses themes of empowerment and the quest for unalienable rights. Ideal for students and civic activists, this theatrical work invites readers to reflect on the historical challenges of suffrage while celebrating the resilience of those who fought for change.
