Nightingale is an original musical dramatization of the life of Florence Nightingale, a pioneer of sanitation and science-based medical care and one of the principal founders of the nursing professions, a woman who spoke truth to power and thereby changed the world. After the pandemic shut down the touring production of Nightingale in 2020, the creative team re-envisioned it as a film and it was produced entirely under COVID-19 restrictions. The film will be offered free of charge on YouTube on September 5th. Watch the trailer here.
