The cast of Sylvia
- Beverley Knight (Marie & Rosetta, The Drifters Girl, Sister Act) stars as Emmeline Pankhurst in the show

Sylvia mashes together dance, hip hop, funk and soul in one remarkable show that celebrates the life of Sylvia Pankhurst – feminist, activist, pacifist, socialist, rebel, who changed the lives of working women and men across the world.
Beverley Knight won the Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role in a Musical for her performance in Sylvia.
The show boasts an acclaimed creative team including director and choreographer Kate Prince, original music by Josh Cohen and DJ Walde, a book by Kate Prince with Priya Parmar, and lyrics by Kate Prince.
