4 Women: Tea + 19
Sunday, March 16 - 3 pm
These four women never were in the same room together,
but imagine …
if they all got together on Sunday afternoon …
to have tea … and talk, gossip and reflect on the fight to get women the constitutional right to vote - the 19th amendment.
Come join the tea time with
Susan B. Anthony
Carrie Chapman Catt
Alice Paul
Ida B. Wells
This live performance depicts the journey of four women fighting to be heard in the United States of America.
Depicting the women will be Mary Schimdt (Anthony), Wendy Thompson (Catt), Jessica Whitfield (Paul) and Karen E. Griffin (KE) (Wells).
Celebrating the anniversary of the 19th amendment, which was ratified on August 18, 1920, this re-enactment imagines how the suffragists engaged, educated, and empowered women to win the right to vote, and its far reaching impact.
This special live performance is organized by Englewood Artist in Residence Karen E. Griffin ( KE ) and her talented friends.
This production was created and organized by Karen E. Griffin ( KE ), who is the 2025 Missouri Art Council individual artist of the year.
