- Have we met?
- No: you're unforgettable. Do you want to play primo or secondo, James?
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, and cannot help but replay the experiences that have shaped them.
Samuel Adamson's virtuosic tale of friendship and music opened at Kiln Theatre, London, in April 2024.
Samuel Adamson's plays include: Some Kind of Bliss (Trafalgar Studios), All About My Mother (from Almodóvar; Old Vic), Southwark Fair (National Theatre), Clocks and Whistles (Bush Theatre), contributions to the 24 Hour Plays (Old Vic), A Chain Play (Almeida Theatre) and Wife (Kiln Theatre). Adaptations include: Ibsen's Pillars of the Community and Mrs Affleck, from Ibsen's Little Eyolf, (both at the National Theatre), A Doll's House (Southwark Playhouse); a musical based on George MacDonald's The Light Princess, with Tori Amos (National Theatre); and Jack Maggs, from Peter Carey's novel (State Theatre Company of South Australia).
