From the team who brought Hitler’s Headquarters to the Victoria Tunnel, and who unearthed the secrets of Newcastle’s Castle and the doomed Geordie witches in WYTCH, now bring a celebration, in the form of a new, high tech, exploration of The Tyne Theatre’s 150th Anniversary.

Their history is in your hands…

In 1867 the “North’s La Scala”, The Tyne Theatre, opened its doors for the first time and has housed countless Stars and Starlets across the years, as well as triumphing in times of darkness and standing tall as the only original working Victorian Theatre in the country.

Aptly named, “1867” will be a multi-sensory experience for each limited audience, anchoring the sights, sounds and smells of the building, all whilst discovering new paths you never knew were there. Cheer for Tosca, escape the 1985 fire, search for lost treasures and mingle with theatre ghosts.

“The way in which I was able to leave modern life at the door and become a part of the past was a unique and liberating experience” – Veteran actor, and household name Bill Fellows, who is (we won’t spoil how!) heavily involved in the production.

“A maze of the mind” – London Theatre One
“Immersive Theatre at its best!” – London Pub Theatres
“Immersive, top class theatre” – Narc Magazine

“1867” opens on September 11th and runs until the 17th with two shows every day at 2:30pm and 7:30pm and is approximately 80 minutes long.

Please note:
– As this production requires you to be on your feet for the majority of the duration, please dress comfortably for a theatrical production with a difference.

– Due to the nature of the show, we cannot grant access to those patrons with mobility issues.
