Sylvia releases new single ahead of International Women's Day and UK tour

You can listen to “March Women March” on all streaming platforms now!

The track is lifted from the Olivier-nominated musical production of Sylvia, from The Old Vic and ZooNation: The Kate Prince Company in association with Sadler’s Wells.

Set to return to the stage in autumn 2026 for a limited UK tour, followed by a short residency at the Royal Albert Hall, the production celebrates the life and activism of Sylvia Pankhurst, the daughter of Emmeline, focusing on her work for working women and men across the globe, a period which led to conflict within her own family.

Sylvia features music by Josh Cohen and DJ Walde, fusing hip hop, funk, and soul, and is choreographed and directed by Kate Prince of ZooNation.

Beverley Knight is confirmed to reprise her Olivier Award-winning role as Emmeline Pankhurst, with Sharon Rose returning as Sylvia Pankhurst. Both lend their voices to the track, which is available to download ahead of International Women’s Day this Sunday, 8 March. It is released by ZooNation Records and produced by the award-winning Martin Terefe.

The London leg will comprise five performances at the Royal Albert Hall from 13 to 15 November 2026. This venue holds significance for the Suffragette movement, having hosted over 20 rallies for the cause and becoming the site of historic speeches, before the suffragettes were banned from the Hall between 1913 and 1918.
