 West End hit set to terrify Newcastle audiences

Ghost Stories

Newcastle Theatre Royal

Tuesday 22 – Saturday 26 April 2025

After exhilarating audiences across the globe with record breaking, sell-out productions and a smash hit film, the Olivier-award nominated, supernatural sensation, Ghost Stories “An immaculately crafted evening of entertainment” (Time Out) will be visiting Newcastle Theatre Royal.

 

Now even more spine-tingling and terrifying than ever, the production was last seen in the UK in 2019 when the show celebrated its latest West End Run. Following this, it embarked on a UK tour in early 2020, which was cut short by the pandemic.

 

When Professor Goodman, arch-sceptic out to debunk the paranormal, embarks on an investigation of three apparent hauntings – as recounted by a night-watchman, a teenage boy, and a businessman awaiting his first child – Goodman finds himself at the outer limits of rationality, and fast running out of explanations.

 

Enter a world full of thrilling twists and epic turns, where the ultimate love-letter to horror is imagined live on stage. A fully sensory and electrifying encounter, Ghost Stories is one of London’s best reviewed plays of all time and will keep you on the edge-of-your-seat. This is a theatrical experience like no other.

After exhilarating audiences across the world with record breaking, sell-out productions and a smash hit film, Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson’s Ghost Stories is "Genuine scary fun” (Sunday Times), a worldwide phenomenon more spine-tingling and fantastically terrifying than ever. 

Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman say of the return of their celebrated terrifying tales: “We are beyond excited that Ghost Stories will be scaring the hell out of audiences around the country in its first ever full national tour. It’s fifteen years since we first brought screams, laughs, jumps and killer twists to the theatre and we can’t wait to do it again. Are you brave enough to book?” 

2018 saw the release of the film version of Ghost Stories. Based on their own play, the film was written and directed by Andy and Jeremy, and its cast included Martin Freeman, Alex Lawther and Paul Whitehouse. The film has been hailed as a ‘Modern Horror Classic’ and was voted number 16 in Empire magazines list ‘The Greatest 25 Horror films ever made’.

Andy Nyman is a multi-award-winning actor, director and writer who has earned acclaim from both critics and audiences for his work in theatre, film, and television. This year he will be starring opposite Imelda Staunton at the London Palladium in Hello, Dolly! and his extensive television credits include The Capture and Unforgotten as well as a highly acclaimed performance as Winston Churchill in Peaky Blinders. Later this year Andy can be seen playing Gov. Thropp in the anticipated blockbuster film WICKED.

  

Jeremy Dyson is best known as the co-creator and co-writer of the multi-award-winning comedy show The League of Gentlemen. His play Ghost Stories, co-written with Andy Nyman was nominated for an Olivier award, and has enjoyed three separate West End runs since debuting in 2010.

Jeremy has worked as script editor on numerous award-winning TV comedies including Bad Education and Tracey Ullman’s Show and has written for many other TV shows including Killing Eve and Good Omens. His latest book, The Warlock Effect co-written with Andy Nyman was published in 2023.

Tim Rice – My Life In Musicals: I Know Him So Well Tour

Sunderland Empire

Thursday 1 May 2025

Ticket link

Due to popular demand following his sell-out tour, Sir Tim Rice, the multi-award-winning, internationally renowned lyricist, will return to theatre stages with his extraordinary live musical theatre event - My Life In Musicals – I Know Him So Well.

The show will see Tim reflect on his illustrious career at the heart of musical theatre. He'll be sharing anecdotes behind the songs – the hits and the misses – along with stories of his life and live performances from the wonderful catalogue of songs that are synonymous with his name and that of his collaborators. Musical accompaniment will be from an array of some of the UK’s leading West End singers and musicians led by musical director Duncan Waugh.

Tim is associated with writing the lyrics for so many of the world’s much-loved hit musicals - Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita, Chess and the Disney productions The Lion King, Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast. His work has not been limited to musical theatre alone, with Evita transferring to the big screen and theme music for the James Bond movie Octopussy.

With the show packed full of songs including Don’t Cry For Me Argentina, Any Dream Will Do, A Whole New World, Can You Feel The Love Tonight, I Don’t Know How To Love Him, Circle of Life, Chess, Hakuna Matata, Another Suitcase in Another Hall, I Know Him So Well, All Time High, Must Love Me, One Night In Bangkok, My Life In Musicals is an absolute must for fans of musical theatre and brilliant music.

Regarded by many as one of the world’s greatest lyricists Tim Rice commented My Life in Musicals is a show in which I reveal all (well, nearly all) of the secrets behind the creation of some of the best-known songs featuring my lyrics. I have had the good fortune to work with some of the greatest composers of our time, including Andrew Lloyd Webber, Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, Elton John and Alan Menken, without whose wonderful melodies I’d be at home watching television.

You’ll probably know quite a few of the songs – and will therefore be relieved to hear I won’t be singing them. All musical aspects of the show I hand over to the outstanding Duncan Waugh Band and West End Singers. There will be plenty of stops in between the hits during which I’ll tell you how they happened and, in some cases, nearly didn’t. Actually, I might sing a little – but not Don’t Cry For Me Argentina.”

News: Jimmy Nail and Robson Green Champion NE Talent for Newcastle's Live Theatre

Jimmy Nail and Robson Green Champion NE Talent for Newcastle's Live Theatre

Jimmy Nail will be taking part in two sold out readings of Harold Pinter’s masterpiece, The Dumb Waiter, in April in support of Live Theatre’s development of North East playwrights. This comes hot off the back of Robson Green’s impassioned backing of Live Theatre’s Big Give Campaign, raising funds for Live Theatre's children and young people's opportunities where his career first began. 

Live Theatre have started 2025 with a bang, with their critically acclaimed production of the Muhammed Ali inspired Champion by Ishy Din surpassing their box office records for the past year. Yet, rising production costs means Live Theatre continues to have to fight hard to ensure that future generations continue to both experience and create great theatre from the North East. 

Taking part in the Big Give Campaign in March, Live Theatre set a £4k target which was exceeded in 48 hours of donations opening. Former Youth Theatre member, 

Robson Green

Robson Green, was an early advocate of the campaign, stating in an online video that:  "The Live Youth Theatre is where I first turned professional. They're the reason I've been doing what I have been doing for the last 41 years as an actor."

Jimmy Nail

Jimmy Nail, whose sister Val Maclane founded Live Theatre with Geoff Gillham in the early 1970s, is another staunch supporter of the Quayside venue. After premiering a workshop of his new play with songs Seconds Away! in February last year, Jimmy now returns to the theatre to read Pinter's The Dumb Waiter on the play's 65th anniversary opposite North East favourite Chris Connel. The event sold out so quickly that a second performance was put on later that same night, tickets for which disappeared almost as quickly as the first. 

Chris Connel

 Artistic Director Jack McNamara said: “We are so grateful for these endorsements of our work and for the amazing generosity our many friends have shown us, particularly in the last month. The combination of our small capacity and our fight to keep ticket prices reasonable means that our earning potential is minimal, and so we will always have to rely on the kindness of friends (and strangers!) to keep us afloat. These are tough times to run a building powered by new writing, but with continued local support we can keep that flame going for generations to come.”

Inspired by its recent hit production, Live Theatre has introduced a new 'Champion' level of supporter to help ensure their future sustainability. In McNamara's view, those who participate in the scheme will genuinely shape the course of North East creativity going forward: “Our mission to launch the next generation of playwrights and ensure that young people in the North East  have the creative lives they deserve is stronger than ever. In the last year alone ex-Live Youth Theatre members have found themselves in major London theatres and raved about in the national press.  And furthermore it was incredible to see Peter Straughan, once Live Theatre's writer-in-residence, collect his Oscar last month for the movie Conclave. There can be no better demonstration that investing in North East talent today will reap dividends for the artists and audiences of tomorrow.”

2:22 - A Ghost Story

Sunderland Empire

Monday 8 – Saturday 13 September 2025.

 

Runaway Entertainment have announced that Stacey Dooley and Kevin Clifton will star in the critically acclaimed, smash hit, supernatural thriller 2:22 - A Ghost Story on an extensive UK-wide tour, visiting Sunderland Empire from Monday 8 – Saturday 13 September 2025.

 

Returning to the role of Jenny following a limited run at the Gielgud Theatre in 2024, Stacey Dooley will perform alongside her partner Kevin Clifton who will play Jenny’s husband, Sam. The remaining cast members for the first half of the tour is due to be announced soon. This will be the first time in the history of the play that a ‘real life’ couple will take on the roles of Jenny and Sam in the production.

 

Kevin Clifton said: ‘I’m such a huge fan of 2:22 as a play. I have seen it a number of times and I’ve wanted to play Sam for ages! It’s superbly written, clever, funny and thought provoking whilst always maintaining a danger that kept me on the edge of my seat. When Stacey did the west end run, I thought she was brilliant and just wanted to be up there with her. Me and Stace playing a couple with a new baby in a new house could not be more perfect! I’m really excited!’

Stacey Dooley added: ‘THRILLED to be slipping back into Jenny’s slippers! Truly. I had such a magic few months with 2:22 last year, I couldn’t be more excited to bring this incredibly clever show on the road! And with my Kev! Total dream, come see us! S x’

 

2:22 - A Ghost Story’s phenomenal success includes three years in the West End over seven seasons. There have been twelve replica productions worldwide and the show has been seen by over 1 million people in seventeen different countries across 5 continents.

 

In 2023/24 2:22 - A Ghost Story embarked on its first extensive, hugely successful UK tour. For 2025/26 the production is back on the road revisiting some cities due to popular demand and is also visiting new places where audiences can enjoy the thrill the show delivers for the very first time!

 

The production began its life in the summer of 2021 at the Noel Coward Theatre, starring Lily Allen, Julia Chan, Hadley Fraser and Jake Wood, and where it won the WhatsOnStage award for Best Play. It then transferred to the Gielgud Theatre for 10 weeks from 4 December 2021. The production there starring Stephanie Beatriz, James Buckley, Elliot Cowan and Giovanna Fletcher completed its run on 12 February 2022. For the first season at the Criterion (May - September 2022) the cast was Tom Felton, Mandip Gill, Sam Swainsbury and Beatriz Romilly. In late September that year Laura Whitmore, Matt Willis, Felix Scott and Tamsin Carroll took over. At The Lyric Theatre from January - April 2023 the cast included Cheryl, Scott Karim, Louise Ford and the return of Jake Wood. The production then moved next door to the Apollo where the cast included Sophia Bush, Ricky Champ, Clifford Samuel and Jamie Winstone. Frankie Bridge took over from Sophia Bush in July of that year. Then in May - August 2024 the show returned to the Gielgud Theatre with Donna Air, James Buckley, aforementioned Stacey Dooley and Joe McFadden.

 

For its first UK tour the 2023 cast featured Joe Absolom, Charlene Boyd, Nathaniel Curtis and Louisa Lytton and the second leg in 2024 saw Vera Chok, Jay McGuiness, George Rainsford and Fiona Wade take up the roles. In summer 2024 a run at the 3Olympia Theatre in Dublin Ireland tour featured the return of Laura Whitmore (this time playing Lauren) with Shona McGarty, Jay McGuiness, and Colin O’Donoghue.

 

2:22 is written by award-winning writer Danny Robins, creator of the hit BBC podcast and TV series Uncanny, and is directed by Matthew Dunster; it’s an adrenaline-filled night where secrets emerge and ghosts may or may not appear…

 

What do you believe? And do you dare discover the truth?

 

“THERE’S SOMETHING IN OUR HOUSE. I HEAR IT EVERY NIGHT, AT THE SAME TIME"

 

Jenny believes her new home is haunted, but her husband Sam isn’t having any of it. They argue with their first dinner guests, old friend Lauren and new partner Ben. Can the dead really walk again? Belief and scepticism clash, but something feels strange and frightening, and that something is getting closer, so they’re going to stay up... until 2:22... and then they’ll know.

REVIEW: Tina – The Tina Turner Musical at Sunderland Empire

Tina – The Tina Turner Musical 

Sunderland Empire

Until Saturday 5 April 2025

The vibrant and soul-stirring Tina – The Tina Turner Musical has arrived in Sunderland. As part of its inaugural UK and Ireland tour, the show takes over the Sunderland Empire until Saturday, April 5th, 2025, delivering an unforgettable, high-energy tribute to one of music’s most iconic figures. If you’ve ever felt the empowering magic of Tina Turner’s music, this production will leave you inspired.

It is the case the jukebox musicals about a single musical act tend to go one of three ways: Sticking to the story of the act (eg Buddy); just making the show a dance and singing tribute (eg Thriller); or just starting the story in the first act before giving up and just having a concert in act 2 (eg. Jersey Boys). This show follows the tread laid by the 1993 movie What's Love Got To Do With It and gives the turbulent life behind the successful career of the lady born as Anna Mae Bullock.   

Thus this Tina Turner musical is not merely a concert celebrating a legendary artist; it’s a powerful, emotional rollercoaster that traces the life and career of Tina Turner from her humble beginnings in Nutbush, Tennessee, to her rise as an international superstar. The production beautifully captures the personal and professional struggles she faced, showcasing the trials, triumphs, and sheer resilience that made Tina Turner a symbol of strength and perseverance.

The early years of singing too loud in church, much to the annoyance of her mother, introduces us to local actor Chizaram Ochuba-Okafor who plays Young Anna Mae Bullock with real enthusiasm. It was a pleasure to see her in the later stages, complete with a duet with the later Tina. This young actor is definitely one to watch for the future. It is also worth noting the audience reaction (an audible gasp) when Anna Mae's mother, Zelma (Letitia Hector) was first struck by her abusive preacher Dad Richard (Rushand Chambers). It was an early sign into the emotional investment that the audience were putting into the show. It is a relief when Tina moves in with her Gran Georgeanna (Claude East). 

The musical dives deep into the defining moments of Tina’s life, including her tumultuous relationship with Ike Turner and her eventual transformation into the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll. The blend of her triumphant return to the stage after escaping years of hardship and the infectious energy of her performances adds depth to a narrative we all thought we knew. However, it’s not just about Tina’s hardships — it’s about her ultimate triumph, resilience, and the transformative power of music.

At the heart of this production is the role of Tina Turner, and the show truly shines. The role is shared between Elle Ma-Kinga N’Zuzi and Jochebel Ohene MacCarthy. On press night we had the delightful Elle Ma-Kinga N’Zuzi. From her vocal power to her infectious stage presence, she commanded the stage with confidence, grace, and raw energy. N’Zuzi’s portrayal is nothing short of captivating — she brings an intensity and emotional depth to the role that echoes the fire that Tina herself embodied throughout her career. 

The chemistry between Tina and their supporting cast members creates a cohesive, powerful experience that makes the audience feel as if they’re not just watching a musical — they’re witnessing Tina Turner’s legacy unfold right before their eyes.

No production of Tina would be complete without the presence of Ike Turner, and David King-Yombo's portrayal of the infamous figure is masterful. While the role of Ike is undeniably complex, King-Yombo’s performance adds nuance to what could easily have been a one-dimensional villain. His portrayal is magnetic and chilling, capturing both the charisma and cruelty that defined Ike’s relationship with Tina. It’s a testament to King-Yombo’s acting chops that he can elicit both disdain and sympathy in equal measure, underscoring the complexity of their dynamic. There was an almost panto like reaction at the curtain call which is a show of how the audience had engaged with him.

The musical numbers are the true heartbeat of this production, and the audience is treated to a showcase of Tina Turner’s iconic hits. From What’s Love Got To Do With It to Proud Mary, the show delivers a potent mix of Tina’s greatest songs, all performed live by the incredibly talented ensemble. The choreography, blending elements of rock ‘n’ roll with Tina’s unmistakable style, is a visual feast that gets the audience moving in their seats.

Of course, no Tina Turner tribute would be complete without her signature costumes, designed by Mark Thompson, and this show delivers in spades. The glittering dresses, thigh-high boots, and feathered ensembles capture the glamour and flair of Tina’s stage presence. The stunning costumes are matched by a set design that evolves seamlessly to mirror the various stages of Tina’s life, creating a stage world that feels as bold and dynamic as the woman herself. Lighting and projections are used to excellent effect, enhancing the atmosphere and bringing the world of Tina Turner to life in vivid colour.

In addition to the power of the music and costumes, the production excels in its portrayal of Tina Turner’s indomitable spirit. It’s a celebration not just of the music that made her a household name, but of her personal resilience and fierce determination. The show is a testament to the universal message of overcoming adversity and finding strength in one’s self, making it a production that resonates on a deeply human level.

The Sunderland Empire has proven to be the perfect venue for this fabulous musical. The space allows the audience to connect with the performers, creating an energy that’s electric and unforgettable. Whether you’ve been a fan of Tina Turner for decades or you’re just now discovering the magic of her music, this production is worth a visit to Wearside.

In short, Tina – The Tina Turner Musical is a dazzling, exhilarating celebration of one of music’s greatest legends. With sensational performances, stunning costumes, and a soundtrack that will have you humming for days, this is a musical that will make you stand up, sing, and feel empowered in ways you never expected. Tina Turner’s legacy is alive and well in this unforgettable production, which is possibly the best biographical jukebox musical about a music act.
