Peer Productions have been working alongside Bishopsgate Institute to develop a new podcast series, Forgotten Women, that wants to celebrate female British activists who have been pushed into the margins of history.

Working together with heritage partners, professional actors and playwrights and the talented young artists from the Actor Development Programme, we are releasing 10 podcasts over the next year, bringing to life the stories of women whose remarkable contributions have remained unsung. 

​

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