Women in Entertainment

Music-hall legends, early comediennes, divas of early film, drag artists, iconic soap actresses, pioneering managers, all-female jazz bands, and the woman who gave birth to rock ‘n’ roll... Brighton and Hove has been home to some of the foremost female entertainers in the country, many appearing in some of the city’s best loved venues, such as Brighton Dome.
