Now is the time to sign up for free tickets to a reading of Nothing But Victory! by Ginger Lazarus, directed by Megan Sandberg-Zakian. This reading will take place on  Saturday November  18 at 7pm, at Boston’s historic Faneuil Hall. Our fabulous cast includes Christine Hamel, Becca Lewis, Adrianne Krstansky, Kate Snodgrass, Patrice Jean-Baptiste, Eliza Fichter, Kelly Chick, and Jessica Golden.

In 1915, Massachusetts suffragists gather at Faneuil Hall to rally after the devastating defeat of a proposed state amendment to give women the vote. Some, like Alice Stone Blackwell, are determined to put a positive spin on the loss and go forward as they have been going. Others, like Maud Wood Park, sense changes in the air and the need for a new strategy. Who will prevail and what cost? Nothing But Victory! is staged in Faneuil Hall where the historic rally took place.

It’s an amazing experience to work at this site, especially with this amazing team. We’re even going to have a live brass band that night!  (Just like they did at the rally in 1915.)

This play is part of Suffrage in Black & White, a series of three plays exploring the intersection of the fight for woman suffrage and race and abolition in Boston. Created and developed for the National Parks of Boston by Plays in Place, with assistance from the Lyric Stage Company of Boston and Boston Playwrights Theatre.

Please RSVP to co-producer@playsinplace.com for a free ticket.

We have a big project coming to Boston very soon! Patrick has written a new play, Revolution’s Edge, commissioned by Old North Illuminated, to be staged at the historic Old North Church.
