“So outstanding, I got goose bumps and cried. Much better than just reading about the women in a book.” - Lilly Ledbetter, Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act

Free Event - Reserve your seats
Before the show, come see the lobby exhibit about Frances Perkins, the first woman appointed to the U.S. Cabinet and longest serving Secretary of Labor (12 years). Frances Perkins was the driving force behind many of the groundbreaking New Deal programs that are still the foundation of the American social safety net — Social Security, unemployment insurance, the 40-hour work week, and the minimum wage. Thank you to League of Women Voters of Needham and the Frances Perkins Center.
