☁Whatever the Weather Creative Play update☁

We just wanted to let you know that we are going to delay opening our brand-new creative playscape - Whatever the Weather. We just need a bit more time to ensure that it's perfect for all the little ones and grown-ups to play in! We're really sorry for any inconvenience caused and we'll keep you all updated with the launch date.

Thank you for your patience :-)

🚨It's your last chance to visit The Wonder Room at Hopetown Darlington this week! 🚨

We've loved having our play space open at Hopetown Darlington, bringing even more free play opportunities to Darlington this Summer, but be quick! It's last day will be 29 August!

If you're having a day out at Hopetown Darlington, why not pop into The Wonder Room, a space inspired by the rich history of the Tees Valley!

⭐ A big thank you to Northumbria Financial Management! ⭐

Theatre Hullabaloo is delighted to announce Northumbria Financial Management as a new sponsor!

Their Managing Director, Andrew popped by the other day for a chat and he said "We are delighted to be working with Theatre Hullabaloo. As a local business, we want to give back to our local community. Upon arriving at the Theatre, we felt a real synergy with the team and their aim of giving young people across the region the space to be creative, imaginative, and most importantly, to make it inclusive for everyone, no matter your background”.

We couldn't continue our important work at The Hullabaloo without support from companies like NFM!
