Monday Digest: What's On In NE1 This Week?

Last updated:

Whether you're looking for family fun, theatre thrills, music moments, foodie highlights or cultural stuff, we've got you covered with some of this week's best bits in NE1!

MONDAY 10 JUNE - SUNDAY 16 JUNE 2019

THEATRE >>

The Cheviot, The Stag & The Black, Black Oil

12 - 22 June

45 years on, this new production of The Cheviot, The Stag & The Black, Black Oil takes the story back to its roots by visiting village halls in the Highlands and Islands, echoing the play’s original 1970s tour. The play was a phenomenal success for Joe Douglas in 2015, before he became Live Theatre’s artistic director. He returns to direct this universal tale of how the greed of a few blights the lives of the many. With a generous dose of Scottish rebellion and irreverence, live music and a riotous ceilidh - you’ve got yourself a rollicking great night out!
