Live Theatre occupies a converted warehouse on Broad Chare in Newcastle city centre, a short walk from the Tyne Bridge and the quaysides. The building stands in the heart of the NE1 postcode area, easily reached by foot from Central Station or by local bus services that serve the riverside. The venue is fully wheelchair accessible, with automatic doors, lift access, and hearing loop provision throughout.
The theatre presents new writing, classic plays and experimental work, with a strong emphasis on commissioning and developing work by Northern writers and artists. Its riverside location in what was once a working industrial quarter reflects Newcastle’s transformation from manufacturing to creative industries. The box office operates from the building, and the full programme and booking details are available via the theatre’s website.
