# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Aggie – The Life and Adventures of Dame Agnes Hunt at Ludlow Assembly Rooms
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 22 Aug, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: ‘AGGIE’ – The life and adventures of Dame Agnes Hunt, adapted from her autobiography and performed by Alison Utting.

A masterclass in biographical storytelling.

Agnes Hunt began writing her life story to amuse Sir Robert Jones in his last illness; nothing less would have persuaded her to put pen to paper. Her story is astounding. Crippled with multiple complex disabilities herself, she refused to let limitations of health or gender define her. Seen as ‘too young, and much too lame’ for the nursing profession, she was to go on to co-found one of the most prestigious hospitals in the world and establish the practice of orthopaedic nursing.

From Shropshire to Tasmania, from Aggie’s indomitable mother to a boisterous escaped patient, follow young Aggie’s adventures as Utting brings this incredible story to vivid life. Based on the memoirs of Dame Agnes, this one-woman tour de force is filled with enjoyable characters and almost-unbelievable events, both tragic and hilarious. A performance to remember.

Reviews from WIs and U3As:
