FANTASTICALLY GREAT WOMEN WHO CHANGED THE WORLD heads to The Other Palace this summer

The UK Theatre Award-winning, hugely successful pop musical Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World is heading to The Other Palace from 20 July-8 September.

This critically acclaimed girl power musical packs a popstar punch, with a catchy soundtrack, awe-inspiring characters and TikTok-favourite choreography.

Remarkable – and often forgotten – women are lifted from the pages of Kate Pankhurst’s beloved book, published by Bloomsbury, and brought vividly to life on stage. This inspiring musical celebrates historic women and their achievements to a soundtrack of uplifting pop songs – with real-life heroines and pioneers spotlighted including Civil Rights activist Rosa Parks, Nobel Prize-winning scientist Marie Curie, Suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst, author Jane Austen, trailblazing pilot Amelia Earhart, innovative artist Frida Kahlo, and many more!

When young heroine Jade finds the Gallery of Greatness on a day trip, she is introduced to each of these iconic women, discovering their stories and how they changed the course of history as we know it.

Audiences who can’t wait for the Fantastically Great Women to arrive in London can stream the toe-tapping, sing-along worthy soundtrack by #1 hit single writer Miranda Cooper and Jennifer Decilveo online.

The creative team behind this exhilarating stage show consists of Olivier Award-winning dramatist Chris Bush, with music by UK No.1 hit songwriter Miranda Cooper and Jennifer Decilveo, and live arrangements by Jen Green. The production is directed by Amy Hodge, with design by Joanna Scotcher, choreography by Dannielle ‘Rhimes’ Lecointe, musical direction and supervision by Audra Cramer, lighting by Zoe Spurr, sound by Carolyn Downing, and co sound design by Rob Bettle.

Casting will be announced in due course.
