One week to go until our first performance of WIRED – join us for a spectacular show, all about what it means to grow up with a phone in your hand! 🫵💜

The online world is a gateway to both amazing and challenging things – and access to these spaces shapes how young people experience the world and feel about themselves. This is the focus of our new show, co-produced with ten young people from Northumberland.

“Our cast have challenged each other to think about what we are both losing and creating by being on our phones all the time. We’ve also explored how adults and young people aren’t always on the same page when it comes to managing risks or understanding online spaces; we hope the show can close that generational gap and start those important conversations” – Zoe, Lead Artistic Practitioner and Writer.

See you at Newbiggin Hub next Saturday, or at Gosforth Civic Theatre and Arts Centre Washington next month. Tickets available now via our website! 🎫
