Shaina Taub stars as Alice Paul in her musical Suffs on Broadway at the Music Box Theatre from March 26, 2024.

Taub is a performer and musical theatre writer. She is known for her frequent work with The Public Theater, including monthly concerts at its cabaret venue, Joe's Pub, and adapting two Shakespeare plays into musicals for its Public Works and Shakespeare in the Park programs: Twelfth Night and As You Like It.
