Peer Productions worked alongside Bishopsgate Institute to develop a new podcast series, Forgotten Women, that celebrates female British activists who have been pushed into the margins of history.

Working together with heritage partners, professional actors and playwrights and our talented young artists from our Actor Development Programme, we are releasing 10 podcasts over the next year, bringing to life the stories of women whose remarkable contributions have remained unsung. You can find the podcast on Apple podcastsSpotify and many other podcast providers.

Our Actors were visiting Bishopsgate Institute and Egham Museum to carefully research female activism across the last 150 years. Using the information they found we have collaborated with writers and actors to bring the history to life. All our podcasts are recorded in front of a live studio audience, with our team using foley sound and live music.
