All Our Daughters? is written and directed by Susan Moffat, Director of New Vic Borderlines, the New Vic

initiative which works with people at risk of being socially marginalised due to position, status, class or

culture.

Christina Lydon, learning manager at Derby Theatre, said:

“All Our Daughters? is an exciting project for Derby Theatre to be involved in as it explores and highlights so

many issues relating to forced marriage and honour violence. Borderlines is a well-established company

and we are confident that the conference will be an inspirational event for Derby educators, artists and

those who work in the community, voluntary and health sectors. Drama, theatre and the arts can be used

very effectively to address social issues – All Our Daughters is a shining example of this and the

conference is an ideal opportunity and platform to discuss and develop new, related ideas for Derby."

The performance of All Our Daughters? on March 1 at 11.00 am is included in a day-long conference to

discuss the key themes explored and highlighted within the play.
