What’s on

This Autumn, familiar village halls and community centres across Cumbria, County Durham and Northumberland will undergo magical transformations to host over 75 live performances of professional theatre, music and dance. Featuring the red-hot Cuban beats of Son Yambu, intense theatrical performance from Northern Stage, intimate stories by award-winning storyteller James Rowland, playing with slime with Herd Theatre, classic silent films with live music accompaniment and stunning acrobatic dance – there’s something for everyone and it’s all happening in a village hall or community centre near you.
