Many children follow their parents into the theatre. Hilary Bell is a playwright, while Lucy is an actor. Sacha Horler (daughter of Ken and Lillian Horler, co-founders of the Nimrod), Felix Williamson (son of David), Tamsin Carroll (daughter of Peter), Jason Donovan (son of Terence) and Robyn Nevin's daughter, Emily Dawe, have all gone onto the stage and screen.
