Uzma and Ambreen Hameed are two sisters who have recently completed their two-book novel series, UNDYING. They are very experienced interviewees and are well-known in theatre and television production respectively.  It isn’t often that two sisters manage to write a book together – let alone one about a vicious rivalry between two sisters! Surprisingly, the project actually brought Uzma and Ambreen closer together. UNDYING is a black comedy about two rival sisters in a British Muslim family who fight for love and against the rising tide of global politics.  While Ambreen is a television producer and journalist, Uzma has directed for Kali Theatre, led projects at the National Theatre Studio and given talks and workshops for a variety of organisations including The Royal College of Art, Dulwich Picture Gallery, Edinburgh International Festival and Playwrights Studio Scotland. Both Ambreen and Uzma Hameed live in the London area.
