Atlantic Records is proud to raise the curtain on SUFFS (Original Broadway Cast Recording) pressed on triple orchid colored vinyl, the official musical companion to the 6x Tony Award-nominated new musical from award-winning singer-songwriter Shaina Taub.
"I grew up in rural Vermont listening obsessively to Broadway cast albums on the boombox in my bedroom,” said Shaina Taub when the album was first announced in April following the show’s official opening. “To get to make one of my own with this miraculous cast and orchestra is beyond my wildest childhood dreams. I'm so grateful to Atlantic Records for making it possible, and am so excited to share these songs and this story with the world."
SUFFS (Original Broadway Cast Recording) includes the groundbreaking show’s powerful call to arms, “The March (We Demand Equality)." The album also includes standout tracks such as “Great American Bitch,” “If We Were Married,” “Worth It” and “Ladies.”
Now playing at Broadway’s Music Box Theatre, SUFFS recently received six nominations for the 2024 Tony Awards, including a nomination for “Best Musical.” Taub was nominated for “Best Book of a Musical” and “Best Original Score,” while Nikki M. James, who plays Ida B. Wells, was nominated for “Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in a Musical.” Additional nominations went to Leigh Silverman for “Best Direction of a Musical” and Paul Tazewell for “Best Costume Design of a Musical.” In addition, SUFFS was recently honored with three Outer Critics Circle Awards, including “Outstanding New Broadway Musical,” “Outstanding Book of a Musical” (Shaina Taub), and “Outstanding Score” (Shaina Taub).
Hailed by New York Magazine as “smart, witty, and teeming with mighty performances,” SUFFS boldly explores the victories and failures of a struggle for equality that’s far from over. SUFFS stars book writer, composer, and lyricist Shaina Taubin the role of Alice Paul, making history as only the second woman ever to write the book, music, lyrics and star in her own Broadway musical. Taub is an Obie Award-winning, Emmy Award-nominated songwriter and winner of the Kleban Prize, the Fred Ebb Award, the Jonathan Larson Grant, and the NYCLU's Michael Friedman Freedom Award for activism. She created and starred in acclaimed musical adaptations of Twelfth Night and As You Like It at Shakespeare in the Park. She has released three solo albums and is currently signed to Atlantic Records.
