Rehearsal photos are in for The Old Vic’s forthcoming production of new musical Sylvia starring Beverley Knight and Sharon Rose.
Running from 27 January to 1 April 2023 at The Old Vic, Sylvia is directed and choreographed by Kate Prince, and brings together dance, hip hop, funk and soul to reveal a remarkable moment in history.
The show has original music by Josh Cohen and DJ Walde, a book by Kate Prince with Priya Parmar, and lyrics by Kate Prince.
Beverley Knight (The Drifters Girl, Sister Act) plays Emmeline Pankhurst in the show, with Sharon Rose (Hamilton, Motown the Musical) as her daughter Sylvia, the lesser-known Pankhurst at the heart of the Suffragette movement.
This revolutionary story celebrates the life of Sylvia Pankhurst – feminist, activist, pacifist, socialist, rebel – who changed the lives of working women and men across the world.
