Fabulous! And inspirational.

Really brought Sylvia to life. I liked the format and the breadth of coverage - I had no idea of the extent of S.P.’s activities and talents before.
-
Brilliant performance. Could hear every word. It was very humbling to hear of the struggle, life and times, sacrifices made from every class of person involved. The slides were a brilliant accompaniment.

I liked the combination of the good acting and screen pictures of the original times, people and Sylvia’s paintings. A very good and informative afternoon.

I was the first woman in the North West to be head of a big mixed comprehensive school in 1974. I’ve been retired for almost 30 years. What a pity! You would most certainly have been working in my school. Well done!

Excellent. Going away with such an even higher respect for the suffragettes and what they achieved. I did not know that Sylvia was an Artist.

It was a fascinating account of Sylvia’s skill as an artist and her determination to improve the lives off the poor and of women. I had not realised that she was such an accomplished artist, A wonderful production, captivating monologue and I liked the visual aids.

​A warm and personal feel to Sylvia’s personality – such a free thinking and fascinating person. Also I hadn’t realised just how barbarically they were treated.
