Debut of the year in my annual round up is the only play you can still see (and you should!) Seagulls and Sad, Sad Stories by Sarah Bond Laurels is a delight

This show is joyous and hilarious and poignant. Go see it in Whitley Bay Laurels

STAGE REVIEW: Jacob Easton enjoys a gritty & hilarious production of Seagulls & Sad Sad Stories at @laurelsWhitley, as three North East lads cope with the existential premonitions of their gloomy futures courtesy of a penny arcade fortune teller ➡️ narcmagazine.com/stage-review-s…

The reviews for this are fantastic. I’m going to see it on Saturday evening & there are still tickets left for all remaining performances

Number 8: Jake Jarratt as Jordan in Seagulls and Sad Sad Stores at Laurels. An understated yet versatile performance of a 16-year-old wanting to fit in with his friends, but eventually trying to save them from themselves. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2024/12/17/bes…

Artistic Director Jamie Eastlake will step down from Laurels Theatre from the start of 2025. 📣

Oh my, this is really the shock news to round off the year. But if there ever was a case of quitting whilst you're ahead, this is it.

One last creepy hilarious dance! For one final time, the critically acclaimed SEAGULLS & SAD, SAD STORIES by Sarah Bond plays at 7:30pm this evening. 🔮 A fantastic alternative offering for the night before the night before Christmas 🎄

Day 6 begins with Hero of 2024. Following the news, it can only be Jamie Eastlake for a phenomenal three years leading Laurels. Lots of achievements to list, but going from an in-house production in 2022 to Theatre Royal 2024 tops the lot. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2024/12/26/chr…

Live Theatre Alphabetti Theatre Which means that first place for Best North-East Fringe Production goes to Carpet Time Productions for Doomgate, mainly because writing good ten-minute plays is very difficult to pull off. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2024/12/26/chr…

Live Theatre Alphabetti Theatre Carpet Time Productions So now it's time for today's highlight: best north-east production. In third place, Subterreanea. A lot of reasons to have high hopes for Peachplant Productions's production values, and they did not disappoint. A major playing to the north-east has arrived. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2024/12/26/chr…

Live Theatre Alphabetti Theatre Carpet Time Productions Peachplant Productions Winner of Best NE Production is Seagulls and Sad Sad Stories at Laurels. Sarah Bond's tale about an all-wise Zoltar machine that's actually an angry statement about classism excels in many areas, in particular the increasingly malevolent prophecies. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2024/12/26/chr…

2024✅ Canny year, see yas in the new one x

#FitPrince and #UntrueDiana Second place for Best Production is Sarah Bond's Seagulls and Sad Sad Stories at Laurels . An all-round standard covering conventional acting, the surreal, and an angry statement about classism puts this ahead of many bigger main-stage plays. chrisontheatre.wordpress.com/2024/12/26/chr…
