'Be the change that you want to see Be the change for you and me’ This revolutionary story celebrates the life of Sylvia Pankhurst – feminist, activist, pacifist, socialist, rebel – the lesser-known Pankhurst at the heart of the Suffragette movement, who changed the lives of working women and men across the world.
Following its 2018 run as a work-in-progress, Kate Prince’s Sylvia is back where it all began for its world premiere, uniting dance, hip hop, funk and soul to shine a light on a remarkable moment in history, with original music by Josh Cohen and DJ Walde.

Brilliant show.
Very enjoyable
Great play great message great talent The theatre leg room is very tight !
This was a brilliant and moving show; one of the best I’ve ever seen, the storyline, cast and choreography were all amazing. If you get the chance to see it take it!
Incredible musical shame that it’s finished! Seats are a little too cramped at the old Vic where we were sat but we coped!!
Incredible. Smashing the patriarchy right shows a week.
Brilliant
Absolutely amazing show! Get staging lighting and cast!
Wasn’t sure what to expect, having only basic knowledge of the suffragette movement. I was fearful that setting this into a musical may not work. But I was totally wrong! What a spectacle, what a cast all of whom were outstanding and what great songs and great dance performances Loved it! Loved it! Loved it!
Fantastic, set, production and cast.
