The Agitators tells the story of sometimes-difficult friendship between Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony. Both wanted equality; on occasion their work pitted themselves against each other. The production at Geva involves only two cast members, and tracks their remarkable 45-year relationship. It's a history lesson that feels more important than ever today. Our guests: Jenni Werner , literary director and resident dramaturg for Geva Theatre Center Deborah Hughes , president and CEO of the National Susan B. Anthony Museum and House Madeleine Lambert, actor who plays Susan B. Anthony in The Agitators Cedric Mays, actor who plays Frederick Douglass in The Agitators
