About The Agitators:

By Mat Smart; Directed by Signe V. Harriday

On stage Sept 21- Oct 28 on the Proscenium Stage

Young abolitionists when they met in the 1840s, Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass were full of hopes, dreams and a common purpose. A fascinating story of a seemingly unlikely, yet true friendship – lasting 45 years from its beginning in Rochester, New York, through a Civil War and on to the highest halls of government. Great allies? Yes. And at times, great adversaries. They agitated the nation, they agitated each other and, in doing so, they helped shape the Constitution and the course of American history.
