Due to popular demand, another date has been added for Tori Allen-Martin’s performance of The Hardest One at The Other Palace Theatre on the 21st February at 8pm.
The Hardest One, created and performed by Tori Allen-Martin and produced by Duchess Street Productions, tells the powerful true story of loss, love, laughs and lessons learned along the way.
Tori Allen-Martin, named as one of the BBC’s New Talent Hotlist 2017, is a singer, songwriter, actor, producer and OFFIE nominated writer. Tori’s debut EP, ‘Wasted’ reached the top 20 in the iTunes singer/songwriter chart and she is now back in the studio working on new material as well as appearing as a vocalist for Eliza and the Bear on BBC Radio One Live Lounge, Sunday Brunch and more. Tori also provided vocals for Idris Elba on ‘The Road Less Travelled’ for ‘The Take’ soundtrack and on his ‘mi Mandela’ album.
Sarah Henley co-directs Tori in this performance, having previously collaborated with her on numerous projects before, including the OFFIE nominated ‘Streets’, ‘Muted’ and ‘Another Way’. Sarah has written and is currently directing ‘Burkas and Bacon Butties’ – an ‘East meets Wigan’ comedy published by Nick Hern Books and being performed at the Vault Festival this month.
Actor and co-director, Timothy O’Hara, joins Tori on stage fresh from his role in the 5* sellout ‘Little Mermaid’ in Bath. BAFTA award winning musician, Aaron Williams rounds off the group as musical director, using his expertise as a session musician to create a unique live soundtrack for this piece.
