Suffragette: the Battle for Equality Author/ Illustrator: David Roberts Publisher: Two Hoots (2018)
cilip KATE GREENAWAY shortlist 2019 shadowing resources CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal 2019 VISUAL LITERACY NOTES Title: Suffragette the Battle for Equality Author/ Illustrator: David Roberts Publisher: Two Hoots First look This is a nonfiction book about the women and men who fought for women’s rights at the beginning of the 20th Century. It is packed with information – some that we regularly read or hear about, and some that is not often highlighted regarding this time in history. There may not be time for every shadower to read this text as it is quite substantial, so make sure they have all shared the basic facts before concentrating on the illustrations. Again, there are a lot of pictures so the following suggestions are to help to navigate around the text to give all shadowers a good knowledge of the artwork. After sharing a first look through the book ask for first responses to Suffragette before looking in more detail. Look again It is possible to group the illustrations into three categories. Find these throughout the book; 1. Portraits of individuals who either who were against giving women the vote or who were involved in the struggle. Because photography was becoming established we can see photos of these people. Some of them are still very well-known; for example, H.H. Asquith, Prime Minister from 1908 to 1916 and Winston Churchill, Home Secretary from 1910 to 1911. They were both against votes for women. Other people became well-known because they were leading suffragettes; for example, Christabel Pankhurst and Annie Kenney. 2. -
Play Reading: 'How the Vote Was Won' by Cicely
Press Release June 9th 2010 Celebrating the centenary of the performance at Twickenham Town Hall in 1910 Play Reading: ‘How the Vote Was Won’ by Cicely Hamilton & Chris St John Directed by Imogen Bond Saturday 19th June 2010, 11am Orange Tree Theatre, 1 Clarence Street, Richmond TW9 2SA Tickets: £10 / £8 concs, Box Office: 020 8940 3633 www.orangetreetheatre.co.uk Post play reading talk by curators Irene Cockroft and Susan Croft. “In a new campaign, women throughout Britain unite and down tools, turning for support to their nearest male relative, which in this case is Horace Cole, a Brixton clerk. When Horace’s house fills up with a frightening parade of female relatives who demand he support them financially, he is rapidly converted to eager pro-suffragist, joining thousands of other men to march on the House of Commons.” Aurora Metro in association with the Orange Tree Theatre presents the sparkling comedy ‘How The Vote Was Won’, Saturday 19th June, 11am at the Orange Tree Theatre. Written by Cicely Hamilton and Chris St John, the play was originally staged by suffrage groups all over Britain and in the USA. Cicely Hamilton (1862-1952) was one of the most prolific and successful of the suffrage playwrights. She spoke at rallies and published widely on suffrage topics. Like her novel Marriage as Trade, her play Diana of Dobson’s dealt with the economic options open to women. Christabel Marshall (1871-1960) assumed the name Christopher St John upon her conversion to Catholicism and because she felt herself better suited to a man’s name. -

TRANSNATIONAL SMYTH: SUFFRAGE, COSMOPOLITANISM, NETWORKS Erica Fedor A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Annegret Fauser David Garcia Tim Carter © 2018 Erica Fedor ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Erica Fedor: Transnational Smyth: Suffrage, Cosmopolitanism, Networks (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) This thesis examines the transnational entanglements of Dame Ethel Smyth (1858–1944), which are exemplified through her travel and movement, her transnational networks, and her music’s global circulation. Smyth studied music in Leipzig, Germany, as a young woman; composed an opera (The Boatswain’s Mate) while living in Egypt; and even worked as a radiologist in France during the First World War. In order to achieve performances of her work, she drew upon a carefully-cultivated transnational network of influential women—her powerful “matrons.” While I acknowledge the sexism and misogyny Smyth encountered and battled throughout her life, I also wish to broaden the scholarly conversation surrounding Smyth to touch on the ways nationalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism contribute to, and impact, a composer’s reputations and reception. Smyth herself acknowledges the particular double-bind she faced—that of being a woman and a composer with German musical training trying to break into the English music scene. Using Ethel Smyth as a case study, this thesis draws upon the composer’s writings, reviews of Smyth’s musical works, popular-press articles, and academic sources to examine broader themes regarding the ways nationality, transnationality, and locality intersect with issues of gender and institutionalized sexism. -

Artistic Directors Note Antaeus Theatre Company has always been known as a “classical” theater company, featuring playwrights such as Shakespeare, Chekhov and Shaw. But a question that fascinates, confounds and inspires us is: What is a Classic? What makes a piece of writing timeless and fresh? What does a particular story have to say about our time, to our audience, to our community right now? We are always challenging ourselves to answer those questions. When we came across Nambi E. Kelley’s new adaptation of Richard Wright’s groundbreaking novel Native Son on the Kilroys List of un- and underproduced plays by female and transgender writers, we knew we had found a piece that would both answer — and expand — our definition of "What is a Classic?"

Liner Notes by Kabir Sehgal
Liner Notes By Kabir Sehgal Listen to music https://ffm.to/shouldertoshoulder Next year, 2020, isn’t just a presidential election year. It’s the 100-year anniversary of the nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which became law on August 18, 1920, when Tennessee became the thirty-sixth state to approve the measure. The amendment was effectively just one sentence: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.” It took some seventy years (and arguably more) to ink this clause into law. And it had immediate and enormous effects on the electorate as some 26 million women could vote in the 1920 presidential election, which swelled to over 74 million who voted in the 2016 election. And while the enactment of this amendment was cause for celebration one hundred years ago, it also exacerbated societal fissures, as African American women and other minorities weren’t able to fully participate in elections. Throughout American history, deciding which minority group should be granted suffrage has been the subject of intense debate. To clarify a common misconception, suffrage doesn’t mean “to suffer.” Suffrage comes from the Latin suffragium, which means “vote” or the “right to vote.” Although when you consider the suffering that many have endured to attain suffrage, the two words seem like synonyms and sound like homonyms. Yet what’s most evident are their antonyms: intolerance, inequality, and injustice. Women, African Americans, immigrants, and more “minority” groups have had their voting rights denied or diminished through history. -

The Women’s Suffrage Movement in Surrey The roots of the women’s suffrage movement in England lie in the aftermath of the Reform Act of 1832, which extended voting rights among men but not women. However, campaigns for equal voting rights did not become effective until the end of the century, with the formation of the Women’s Franchise League and the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies (NUWSS). Members of these societies were both male and female and were known as suffragists, from which the later, more radical suffragette movement developed. In 1903, Emmeline Pankhurst left the NUWSS and, along with her daughter Christabel, formed the Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU), arguing that a more drastic means of action was required for women to achieve the vote. From 1903 to 1917, the WSPU was the leading militant organisation campaigning for women’s suffrage in Great Britain. Tactics used included illegal actions such as smashing windows, obstruction, violence, arson, and hunger strike following imprisonment; members became known as suffragettes. The growth of Suffrage societies across Surrey In Surrey, the movement appears to have been active from the 1870s, with the first suffrage meeting allegedly being held in Guildford in January 1871. A branch of the Central Society for Women’s Suffrage had been formed in Reigate by 1906, with Ruth Pym as secretary, and by 1909 had affiliated to the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies to become the Reigate, Redhill and District Society for Women’s Suffrage. South east Surrey had traditionally been an area of non-conformism and reform and by the late nineteenth century was home to radical but wealthy residents, particularly in the villages around Dorking. -

Artistic Directors’ Note Welcome to Antaeus and the second production of our 2015 season. During this uncertain time for the Los Angeles theatre community, we believe even more strongly in the power of intimate theatre and we’re so grateful to find kindred spirits in ou,y our audience. This is a year of growth for us here at Antaeus. With that in mind, we found ourselves drawn to projects that force us to face our own evolution, and our own sense of growing up. Henry IV, Part One led us into an exploration of honor, of the relationship between fathers and sons, and of the choices we make in determining our own destinies. With William Inge’s beautiful and stealthy Picnic, we hope to delve into the predicaments of small-town life in 1950s Kansas as the residents grapple with ambition, desire and loneliness.
