Untold Stories features two autobiographical recollections by Alan Bennett (The History Boys, Forty Years On, The Habit of Art, The Madness of George III).

  • Hymn is a touching memoir of music in childhood, directed by Nadia Fall, with an evocative score by George Fenton.
  • Cocktail Sticks, directed by Nicholas Hytner, revisits some of the themes and conversations of Alan Bennett’s memoir A Life Like Other People’s.

Olivier Award-winning actor Alex Jennings plays Alan Bennett in both pieces.

Hotels near the Duchess Theatre

The Duchesss Theatre is down by the Aldwych end of the Strand. The 3 star Travelodge Covent Garden is just the other side of Covent Garden and the 4 star Strand Palace Hotel is just round the corner on the Strand. For 5 star choices you can’y go far wrong with the Savoy itself! Nearest tube is Covent Garden but itr can get a bit manic at the end of the evening… walk along to Charing Cross, or up to Holborn for a slightly more relaxed time of it rather than battling with the lifts if you are thinking of staying outside of the West End.
