The piece follows Jade, who sneaks into her local museum for a behind-the-scenes peek at the yet to be opened Gallery of Greatness. There, she meets some of history's most iconic ladies: Marie Curie, Emmeline Pankhurst, Frida Kahlo, Rosa Parks and Amelia Earhart, to name just a few.
The show first opened in Southampton last summer, and is now set to visit Liverpool, Salford, Kingston, Edinburgh, Exeter, Cheltenham, Sheffield, Poole and Stratford in east London, where it runs for a month.
