Our Little Hour
Following its critically acclaimed, sell out succes in 2024 OUR LITTLE HOUR comes to Hope Street Theatre as part of its 2026 revival tour . Hailed as “an intensely moving new musical drama” it tells the inspirational story of how Walter Tull – grandson of a Barbadian slave and orphaned at just eight years old – rose to prominence as the first black footballer to play at the highest level of the domestic game in the UK before achieving another historic breakthrough as the first man of his heritage to be commissioned as an Officer in the British Army. Written by award winning playwright Dougie Blaxland and including 16 “hauntingly beautiful original songs OUR LITTLE HOUR is a show “not to be missed”.
