An epic, life-spanning tale of friendship, music, and the moments that change a person forever.
At St Pancras International, a woman sits at the piano and begins to play. The music captivates commuters, tourists and, following a viral clip, people around the world. Behind the music is the incredible story of a lifelong duet - the ballad of Hattie and James.
Throughout their lives, Hattie and James find themselves inextricably linked, for better or worse, and cannot help but replay the experiences that have shaped them.
Samuel Adamson's impassioned story asks who gets to have their voice heard, and whether the score can ever be settled. The Ballad of Hattie and James opened at the Kiln Theatre, London, in April 2024.
