League of Women Voters of Philadelphia

League of Women Voters of Philadelphia The League of Women Voters encourages informed and active participation in government and works to increase understanding of major public policy issues.

The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan, nonprofit grassroots civic organization that has fought since 1920 to improve our government and engage all citizens in the decisions that impact their lives. Formed from the movement that secured the right to vote for women, the centerpiece of the League’s efforts remain to expand civic participation and give a voice to all Americans. Our issues are gr

ounded in our legacy of making democracy work for all citizens. We do not support or oppose candidates for public office. However, being nonpartisan does not mean we lack opinions, or the willingness to express them. Our positions are formed after research, study and consensus. We are passionate advocates – both women and men – who work to influence policy on specific issues by speaking out and putting pressure on our elected leaders. We are well known for hosting candidate debates and forums because an honest and respectful sharing of ideas is vital to the functioning of American democracy.

The League of Women Voters of Philadelphia is excited to partner with the Arden Theatre as the beneficiary of the Pay-What-You-Choose Final Dress performance of POTUS on Wednesday, September 11th at 7:00 p.m. Purchase your tickets beforehand to make sure you don’t miss out (tickets will also be available at the door as well).

POTUS is a sharp political comedy about when a President who unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis, and the seven brilliant and beleaguered women he relies upon.

Attendees are welcome to join us to mingle at a brief reception before the performance as we prepare for a busy election season!


Please note that this show does contain some mature themes and strong language.
