March of Women
March of Women is a community arts project which will bring together the women and families of Glasgow through a dramatic celebration of local history and social space. This project is a partnership between Royal Conservatoire Scotland and Glasgow Women’s Library funded by Creative Scotland.
The project takes its inspiration from A Pageant of Great Women by Cicely Hamilton, performed and toured in 1909. The play was radical due its politics and the sheer number of people involved since the cast was mostly recruited from the local female population.
