Forgotten Women

With our new podcast series, Forgotten Women, we want to celebrate female British activists who have been pushed into the margins of history.

Working alongside the Bishopsgate Institute, together with heritage partners, professional actors, playwrights and our talented young artists from our Actor Development Programme, we are releasing 10 podcasts over the next year.

These will bring to life the stories of women whose remarkable contributions have remained unsung. They can be found on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and many other podcast providers by searching “Forgotten Women”.

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