Here is a short interview with the playwright: Click HERE

Lucretia Mott arrives home late one night in 1848 to find her husband John waiting by the fire. An astonishingly frank conversation ensues as the 55 year old wife and mother boldly and lovingly explains her co-creation of the Declaration of Sentiments, and her work to create a new future of possibilities for her daughters, their daughters, and all women.

The 19th Amendment Project is a collection of short plays written by some of the most accomplished women and/or non-binary playwrights working today, writing on the passage of the 19th Amendment 100 years ago and its ongoing impact.  Each of the 14 plays was released virtually, one at a time, between August Aug 22 – 30. and ended in September, 2020.

The production partner is The League of Women Voters of Wake County
