Here Be Dragons is coming to Cleadon Little Theatre 

Saturday 22nd February  3:30pm

 

Written by Lindsay Rodden for Unfolding Theatre, and everyone

There’s a light in the tunnel. No – wait – two lights. A warm rush of breath, a mighty roar, and…

It’s not a train.

It’s a –  


M is for Metro. M is for Mum and Grandad Mack. M is for… monsters? But there’s no such thing as mythical creatures, not here, is there?

Em lives near the River Wear. She is ten (and three quarters), and she isn’t scared of made-up stories, okay? There’s enough to worry about right here. But one night, the world feels different. And Em finds something magic to believe in – something magnificent that will change her mind forever.  

Full of melody and music, Here Be Dragons is for everyone up for a mighty adventure. Join multi-talented maestros, Bridget Marumo, Hannabiell Sanders and Tim Dalling, on a journey across the marvellous North East like you’ve never seen it before, and into the miraculous unknown. Directed by Unfolding Theatre’s Annie Rigby, with set design by Imogen Cloët and written by Lindsay Rodden, Here Be Dragons is for everyone who’s ever wanted to fly away. Sometimes we all need a little bit of magic. This performance brought to you by The Cultural Spring, South Tyneside Council and UKSPF

MARCH 25th - 29th 2025

April 1939. An English couple, Peter and Suzy, are living in Provence in idyllic isolation, far, it seems, from the rumblings of the coming war. Their peace is shattered from within when Suzy discovers she has been Peter is not the man he claims to be. Suzy's life is thrown into turmoil as the possibility arises that Peter may in fact be a ruthless killer on the run.

 

Then a Scotland Yard detective arrives and events become even more complicated and frightening... Lies, subterfuge and murder make this fast-moving thriller a dark and disturbing roller coaster of bluff and double bluff.

SAT 12th April 2025

Scott Doonican brings his 2025 ONE MAN SHOW Tour back to Nuttycombe Brewery.
Expect silliness, shenanigans, singalongs and stories a-plenty.

As the charismatic frontman of the UK's hardest-working comedy band, 'The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican', Scott Doonican is a debonair and theatrical performer with superb hair and more style than you could shake a Milan catwalk at. As a solo performer, Scott's 'One Man Show' shows are every bit as funny, dynamic and engaging as those with his band, and he is equally at ease in front of large festival crowds, as he would be in a theatre or down the pub. This is where Scott Doonican the story-teller, entertainer and consummate showman, gets the opportunity to take his band's extensive back-catalogue of comic-songs and perform them, stripped-back, on just his battered 'Workhorse' acoustic guitar or his little ukulele in his hand. Following, in the footsteps of his comedy-folk heroes (Mike Harding, Jasper Carrott, Billy Connolly, Richard Digance, Jake Thackeray et al), here, the Doonicans' side-splitting song-smithery, comes to the fore, often accompanied by with an abundance of cracking yarns, giving a charming insight to the inspiration behind them. He's on a mission to bring comedy-folk back to the masses for the 21st Century.
