Fantastically Great Women Who Changed The World | The Musical Fantastically Great Women Who Changed The World | The Musical

From explorers to artists, scientists to secret agents, hear the stories of some of history’s strongest women; all independent icons who really did change the world. logos You may wish to allow your KS1 / LKS2 class to add in the adjectives to complete the sentences from the Jane Austen section of the book. Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World follows the young heroine, Jade, as she goes on a school trip and discovers the Gallery of Greatness in a closed wing of a museum. Inside, the exhibits come to life and Jade meets some of history’s most impressive women, including Rosa Parks, Frida Kahlo, Amelia Earhart, Marie Curie and, of course, Emmeline Pankhurst. This activity focuses on the section linked to Agent Fifi or otherwise known by her real name Marie Christine Chilver. Adapted by Chris Bush, Lyrics Chris Bush & Miranda Cooper, Music Miranda Cooper & JenniferDecilveo, Director Amy Hodge, Set & Costume Design Joanna Scotcher, Choreographer Dannielle Lecointe, Lighting Design ZoeSpurr,LightingSound designCarolyn Downing, Casting Rosie Pearson of Pearson Casting,Orchestrations & music production byJenniferDecilveo, Live arrangements by Jen Green, Musical Director Audra CramerLight, bright, business-grade spaces to host meetings in both MAST Mayflower Studios and Mayflower Theatre Does she think we might be guilty of overloading the next generation with the responsibility to fix the mistakes of the past? “It’s something I think about more and more as the series has gone on, that it’s a throwaway thing to say, ‘You can change the world’ and a lot of pressure to put on them by asking how are you going to save the planet? But hopefully I break it down so it feels not too overwhelming.” Join our inquisitive heroine Jade as she breaks away from her class to take a peek behind the scenes at the not yet open Gallery of Greatness in the local museum. Along her journey she is surprised to meet the incredible wonder women: Frida Kahlo, Rosa Parks, Amelia Earhart, Mary Seacole, Marie Curie, Emmeline Pankhurst to name just a few. There’s a bit of all the characters in me and because, as I say, it’s an essence of these characters, all the women in the show are bad ass, there’s no denying they are all amazing and fantastic. But Emmeline Pankhurst was just fierce and to have the guts to do what she did in that time, a little bit of that embeds in you and that’s what I want to take away from this show and that’s what we want the audience to take away to, to empower them.

The Bloomsbury Children’s Team THE AIM ABOUT THE BOOKS

Coming with a large group? The coach drop-off point is outside the Festival Theatre with a coach park in Via Ravenna. I’ve learnt a lot just over the last four weeks of rehearsals so hopefully that translates on stage. I love how Chris (Bush) who has adapted the book into the play has made the stories of women who wouldn’t have crossed in real time combined them. So you have Amelia Earhart and Sacagawea, who would never have met in real time doing a scene together and they know each other and are friends in this after life. And then Emmeline Pankhurst pops in and speaks to them as well! And it’s cool how their relationships are built within the story. It’s like a celebration and helping Jade. Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World is a new musical based on the book by Kate Pankhurst, a descendant of Emmeline Pankhurst, adapted by Chris Bush ( Nine Lessons and Carols, Almeida Theatre) and Miranda Cooper (songwriter for Girls Aloud and the Sugababes) with music by Jennifer Decilveo (Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus). Your class will create an experiment whereby they create glow in the dark slime linked to the radium in the jar that Marie Curie slept beside each night. I especially enjoyed the inclusion of Manchester’s own Emmeline Pankhurst – who Kate Pankhurst discovered she is related to whilst writing the book. Kirstie Skivington spoke with a broad Mancunian accent for the role, which was a nice touch.In this second book for older readers Kate Pankhurst, tells the fascinating stories of some of history's most talented female artists. We have a range of Support Us options and if you would like to donate to MAST Mayflower Studios every penny you donate comes directly to us. What’s a suffragette?” asks my niece, Eva, on the way to this musical adaptation of Kate Pankhurst’s picture book. The older niece, Martha, is pre-adolescent and in no mood to explain terms to her six-year-old sister. I summarise 20th-century gender inequality (“That’s so rude”) but it is harder to convey the meaning of governance and suffrage. From explorers to artists, scientists to secret agents, hear the stories of some of history’s strongest mothers, sisters and daughters; all independent icons who really did change the world. Rosa’s Lullaby” (sung by Renée Lamb as Rosa Parks) is all about dreaming of a better future; “Dream a world of colour where you never have to hide/No matter how impossible it seems/A better world for everyone begins with dreams.” Kate Pankhurst other books include Rebel Girls, Little Leaders, and This Little Trailblazer (Photo: Dave Benett/Getty)
