Background
History
Victoria Hall was constructed as an annex to Hanley Town Hall in 1888, as part of the town's celebrations for the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria. It was built in red brick and terracotta, and designed by local borough surveyor Joseph Lobley. Conductors who have appeared at the hall include Edward Elgar who conducted the first performance of his composition King Olaf (Op 30). In 1996 Donald Hunt conducted the BBC Philharmonic and the Ceramic City Choir in a revival to mark the centenary of the premiere. Recordings made in the hall include the live album by Slash Made in Stoke 24/7/11.
