Upcoming opera &quot;The Mother of Us All&quot; depicts feminist figure Susan B. Anthony and her fight for the women&#039;s right to vote. Although the show deals with historical events, its commentary on women&#039;s struggles is relevant even today, said director Michael Hackett, former chair of the theater department.

Michelle Drever said she can’t help but tear up as she sings the words of Susan B. Anthony. Drever, a graduate voice student, is one of three women portraying the suffragette in the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television’s upcoming show, “The Mother of Us All.” The opera, which follows Anthony’s life and legacy as she fought to earn women the right to vote, is a collaboration between Opera UCLA, UCLA Philharmonia and the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music, and will premiere Friday at the Freud Playhouse.
