Too close to home? In a climate where there are many questions, concerns and fears, Denied explores the timely conversation regarding the threat of fundamentalist Islam here in the UK. Powerful drama, gripping and shocking, it has an important significance in a crucial time. Franchesca addresses the audience: "In all my study, in all my reasoning, all my interviews and reporting, the answer that I have found lies at the end of the biggest question of all...will that same power that denied freedom to all those women in Balochistan, that denied life to those 52 victims during the London transport attacks in 2005, the same power that continues to deny thousands all across our world, now deny me the right - here in the United Kingdom - to put on this play, and deny you the right to watch it?"
