Gateshead is currently lacking a purpose-built theatre that local societies, charities, schools and community groups can hire to stage their productions.

Since the Dryden Centre became unavailable, many local musical theatre groups have been forced to seek venues outside the borough. For example, Gateshead Musical Theatre Company now hires facilities at Park View School in Chester-le-Street due to the shortage of suitable performance spaces within the area.

At the same time, the old Town Hall and surrounding area in Gateshead is being regenerated by Capital & Centric, who are inviting residents to share creative ideas that align with their vision for the development.

One suggestion is the creation of a new theatre venue that could be hired by local societies, schools and community groups, while also being capable of hosting professional touring productions.

A flexible, modern performance space would support the thriving amateur theatre community and complement the cultural facilities already established by the neighbouring Glasshouse.

Please take a few moments to complete the short survey and share your own ideas for the future of the building and surrounding area.

Reviving Gateshead’s Old Town Hall and Civic Quarter with new homes, indie food and drink spots, green space and loads of new energy.
