Based on the British Book Awards Biography of the Year, ‘Toast’ is the story of Nigel Slater’s childhood, told through the tastes and smells he grew up with. From making the perfect sherry trifle to waging a war over cakes and from the pressured playground politics of sweets to the rigid rules of restaurant dining, this is a story of love, loss and…toast.
Reviews of ‘Toast – the Story of a Boy’s Hunger’
‘Emotions, memory and taste buds. Genius.’ – Lynne Truss
‘He recreates with moving honesty and laugh-out-loud comedy the hopes and fears of boyhood. Remarkable.’ – The Observer
Please note this show has a strict no latecomers policy for this show. There is a latercomer admittance 5 minutes into the show, after that entry will not be allowed until the interval. This is the same in Act 2. Anyone leaving the auditorium to go to the toilet will also not be re-admitted.
Nigel Slater's Toast finds a recipe for success with its long-awaited full London cast announcement. The culinary icon's autobiography-turned-film-turned-play is set to open at The Other Palace in just two weeks following a sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival last year.

You are what you eat! That common saying is precisely what Nigel Slater’s Toast takes up and now the critically acclaimed play from the 2018 Edinburgh Festival is slated to make its way to The Other Palace!
