(Wo)men Rule Broadway - [West End Edition],

London, England, United Kingdom London, England, United Kingdom

  • About the event

    (Wo)men Rule Broadway [West End Edition] is an exciting and interactive night of live music, singing, and a few surprises! You'll laugh, you'll cry, and maybe you'll see something you've never seen before. Join us for an incredible night celebrating women and musical theatre!

    (W)RB is a musical theatre cabaret in which women sing musical theatre roles traditionally written for men. So often in musical theatre men get to sing about their ambitions, their dreams, and their demons- whereas women tend to sing about the men. But women have ambitions, dreams, and demons too!  We believe that the human experience is one that transcends gender. This project is for every little girl who watched  “Beauty and the Beast” and thought, “I want to play Gaston.” We are providing the platform for women to play the roles they've always dreamed of, but were always told they couldn't do.

    Why should you sponsor?

    At (Wo)men Rule Broadway it is important to us that we pay everyone involved in our productions. This includes our crew, live band, and or course our talented performers. All too often in the entertainment industry people are asked to do things for free or for the "exposure," but we believe that professionals should be treated as such. We value the contributions of everyone we work with and believe they should always receive the compensation they deserve.

    We pride ourselves on creating high quality content that you'll love! This means that our shows have lights, costumes, awesome talent, a live band, and all the odds and ends that go in to a full theatrical production. Much to our chagrin, none of these things can be bought with passion and instead require very real money.

    Most importantly, (Wo)men Rule Broadway donates a portion of every production's proceeds to a charity of our choice. This time, we're excited to be donating to Refugee Women Connect, which provides aid to refugee women and asylum seekers who face inequality and are denied social justice. Discover more about this amazing charity by visiting https://www.refugeewomenconnect.org.uk

    The more - very real - money we are able to raise, the bigger the portion of the ticket sales we can donate to our amazing friends at Refugee Women Connect. Help us support women across multiple disciplines!
