A few people have asked about this in our FB group this week so I thought I’d put together a post sharing my favourite spots.

I, Daniel Blake (Northern Stage) Review

 This is based on a performance in March 2026 at Northern Stage Newcastle. I paid for these tickets myself. 

Last night I finally got to see I, Daniel Blake at Northen Stage.

I had watched the film so was familiar with the storyline. We took our seats in the theatre and I noticed the audience was a real mix of all ages from students up to pensioners.

Royal Shakespeare Company, Hamlet (Newcastle Theatre Royal) Review

 Ad - We were provided with press tickets in March 2026. 

Royal Shakespeare Company, Hamlet is performing at Newcastle Theatre Royal this week.

I love going to the theatre but have somehow made it to the age of 42 and have never watched a production of Hamlet. My preconceptions were that it was a long, wordy play. However, like a lot of us, I absolutely adored the recent film Hamnet which is entwined with the famous Shakespeare play and I wanted more!
