 Old Victorian theatre |

Formerly the New Tyne Theatre and Opera House, this fine example of a Victorian theatre, which retains many original back and under-stage features, was rescued from near dereliction several years ago, and now puts on a varied menu of shows, specialising more in popular entertainment then experimental or so-called serious theatre. Big musicals, comedies, and children's shows are the kind of thing most likely to be on offer. The theatre is also a venue for the kind of bands and soloists who might once have been big names, but who can no longer fill the major halls and arenas (such as Rod Argent, Canned Heat, and the Incredible String Band, to name but three examples). The Newcastle Opera House is at the centre of a "theatre village" that includes a couple of pubs, a restaurant, and a cafe, and further development of this aspect is expected in the coming years.
