St. Pete City Theatre Presents The Suffragette’s Murder
If you enjoy a good mystery with a little history mixed in, St. Pete City Theatre presents The Suffragette’s Murder, running September 18–27. Set in a Manhattan boarding house in 1857, the story follows an eclectic group of tenants preparing a secret gathering for the budding women’s suffrage movement when a constable arrives after one of them is found murdered. What follows is an elaborate ruse as the unlikely group bands together to throw the constable off their scent.
