The Story
This world premiere, winner of our 2024 Quill to Act New Play Festival, explores the roots of the women’s rights movement with depth and urgency. Set in 1918, it follows three young university women who challenge societal norms with a determined campaign for birth control and reproductive rights. Bravery, sacrifice, and the fight for autonomy take center stage in a play that invites reflection and sparks conversation about the struggles and victories that paved the way for change.
