Celebrate the hit musical Sylvia and the extraordinary woman behind it – her courage, her causes and her enduring legacy.

Protest, Performance, Power: The Continuing Legacy of Sylvia Pankhurst

Join us for a reception at the historic Royal Geographical Society between the matinee and final performance of the hip hop musical Sylvia. Come to hear from Helen Pankhurst about her grandmother, from the musical producer about the performance and from celebrities with a Sylvia and wider suffragette connection. Celebrate Sylvia's impact and support Centenary Action and the work that remains to be accomplished. Come dressed in one or more of the suffragette colours. Finally, for those of you going to the evening performance, join us as we march down to the iconic Royal Albert Hall together.

During the event Sandi Toksvig, the brilliant broadcaster, writer, comedian, presenter and political activist, will help present celebratory scrolls and brooches to our inaugural Pankhurst 100 members. [ Pankhurst 100 members commit to supporting with £100 a month to the end of the campaign in 2028/29.
