Musical
Sylvia
Breaking from the path of her suffragette mother and sister, a young campaigner fights for working women, the poor and people whose voices are ignored.
First Night is a theatre diary for logging the shows you've seen and discovering what to see next.
Sylvia is surrounded by a family committed to women’s suffrage, but her own politics pull her towards people left outside that struggle’s usual focus. She campaigns for working women, people living in poverty and those without a public voice, placing her beliefs under pressure from the family ties and expectations closest to her.
A historical musical that places political organising beside family conflict, with Sylvia’s activism widening the fight for change beyond the suffrage campaign around her.
political history, family conflict, social activism and stories about women challenging established movements.
