Our speakers will reflect, respectively, on the histories of feminisms in Northern Ireland and the erasure of lesbian identity from history. Each will reflect, broadly, on how we might map and trace unwritten or marginalised histories and on the role that creativity, on the page and on the stage, might have in this process. By what means, in other words, do we find ourselves connected with – or disconnected from – our gendered pasts?
Dr Shonagh Hill, ‘Generational Feminisms in Contemporary Northern Irish Performance’
