Join PSPL for Story by Story, a monthly series for adults and teens, where storytellers from around the country share stories reflecting diverse cultures, beliefs, and experiences.

If Susan B. Anthony and her pals had iPads and TikTok, would it have taken 72 years to win the vote? Listen as Sally Perkins presents Digging in Their Heels, an updated, comedic, honest, and poignant version of women’s battle for the ballot that inspires audiences to stay the course for voting justice.
Sally Perkins is a professional storyteller, speaker, educator, and trainer. She travels the country performing stories of all sorts: historical, wisdom, personal... even ghoulish. She’s been a featured performer at the United Solo Theatre Festival in NYC, the Indianapolis Spirit & Place Festival, the Tennessee Haunting in the Hills Festival, and the National Storytelling Network Conference.
When she’s not performing her stories, Sally is an Insight Data Storyteller for Authenticx and conducts training for businesses and organizations needing to tell their stories more effectively. She previously served on faculty at Butler University and California State University, Sacramento. Sally received both her M.A. and Ph.D. in Speech Communication and Rhetoric from the University of Kansas.
Digging in Their Heels was a top-selling show at the 2018 Indy Fringe Theatre Festival and was featured at the 2019 United Solo Theatre Festival off-Broadway in New York City. She has performed the story for universities, theatres, law firms, businesses, and women’s organizations across the country.
