Sylvia

The Old Vic, London, SE1 8NB
  • Votes for Women and a fractured family at a momentous hour in British history.
    100 years after the first women in Britain were granted the vote, Kate Prince combines dance, hip-hop, soul and funk in Sylvia to shed new light on a remarkable story at the heart of the Suffragette movement.
    Co-written by Kate Prince and Priya Parmar with original music by Josh Cohen and DJ Walde, Sylvia is a modern musical celebrating the life of Sylvia Pankhurst, her pivotal role in the campaign for women’s rights and the price of the passion and politics that tore her family apart.
    The cast includes Delroy Atkinson, Carly Bawden, Verity Blyth, John Dagleish, Jade Hackett, Todd Holdsworth, Izuka Hoyle, Beverley Knight, Genesis Lynea, Jaye Marshall, Tachia Newall, Maria Omakinwa, Karl Queensborough, Ross Sands, Witney White and Elliotte Williams-N’Dure.
    Sylvia is an Old Vic, Sadler’s Wells and ZooNation: The Kate Prince Company production, co-commissioned by 14-18 NOW.
