Echoes of the Diaspora: Exploring the stories of British Muslim women

Echoes of the Diaspora (Echoes) aims to enrich the collective understanding of the UK’s diverse communities through a specific focus on the stories of Muslim women, celebrated in a theatrical context, through live performance including poetry, monologue and film.

Muslim women are often spoken about and rarely spoken to. Echoes, therefore, aims to celebrate these stories  with the aim of challenging the status-quo as well addressing the need for more nuanced and diverse representation within the arts.

Funded by Arts Council England, Near Neighbours, Revoluton Arts and 1 Degree East.

With support from Dar Aminah, Luton Culture, Khayaal Theatre and The Jaan Mix.
