Maurine Dallas Watkins’ (1896-1969) Chicago was a hit on Broadway in 1926 before Kander, Ebb, and Fosse created
the musical based on her play. Susan Glaspell (1876-1948) co-founded The Provincetown Players. Rachel Crothers
(1878-1958) created Stage Women’s War Relief, raising almost seven million dollars for the allies. Mary P. Burrill dealt with the treatment of Black soldiers in World War I. Zona Gale (1874-1938) was the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and her play premiered at Sing Sing Prison. This and more in 20 years.
