For one night only at The Other Palace Theatre, Victoria Derbyshire - Dear Cancer, Love Victoria, the story of a much-loved and highly respected BBC journalist. After spending 20 years finding the human story behind the headlines she herself was in the news in 2015, after receiving a devastating breast cancer diagnosis. With honesty and openness, she decided to live out her treatment and recovery in the spotlight in a series of video diaries that aimed to demystify the illness. The diaries have so far amassed 17 million views.
Victoria’s story is an affecting and at times heart-breaking one but it is so often laugh-out-loud too. This is a powerful account of a brave struggle told with honesty, courage and emotion that gives strength to anyone touched by cancer. Join Victoria for an evening of conversation, questions, answers and above all, openness.
The Other Palace show is in aid of You Can, who provide emotional support for young people aged 10-29 years of age who’ve been through cancer treatment.
A truly heartwarming story not to be missed!
