Description
Live@thelibrary - Sylvia VS the Fascists
Tuesday 8 March, 2pm and 7pm
Oldham Library, Greaves Street, Oldham
Tickets £5
Part of International Womens Week
It’s 1930s England, and as the British government strikes bargains with Hitler and Mussolini, the nation’s own fascists are on the march.
While the authorities turn a blind-eye to the threat, one person is ready for battle...Sylvia Pankhurst. Feminist. Activist. Champion of Justice. Sylvia vs the Fascists is a comedy-drama telling the story of Sylvia Pankhurst, who stood up against a British Establishment so afraid of socialism that it appeased the fascists on its own doorstep.
Written by Rob Johnston, author of The Riot Act (Oldham Library, 2019).

Access to Oldham town has never been easier thanks to Metrolink. The town centre line has three stops – Oldham Mumps, Oldham Central and Oldham King Street – meaning the many shops, attractions, events and leisure offer is all within a short distance. Journeys to Oldham from Manchester now only take half an hour.
