The UK Theatre Award-winning, hugely successful pop musical Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World is heading to The Other Palace for the summer. 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!
The cast of this inspiring musical comprises Meg Hateley (Sophie in Mamma Mia!, West End); Charlotte Jaconelli, fresh from the award-winning run of Sunset Boulevard at the Savoy Theatre; Anelisa Lamola (Once on This Island, Regent’s Park Theatre); Aaliyah Monk (School of Rock, West End); and returning cast members Georgia Grant-Anderson and Elena Breschi; and returning swings Summer Priest and Rachel Seirian (also Assistant Choreographer).
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 (Kylie Minogue, Girls Aloud) and Jennifer Decilveo (Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato) online.
Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World has delighted and inspired audiences across the UK since 2021, including three nationwide tours, a summer at Theatre Royal Stratford East and a successful run at Edinburgh Fringe 2022.
