North East Rising

Do you ever feel like the media is being a bit unfair about the North East? Like there is a bit more to it than closed down mines and drunken Ken and Barbie dolls? Well, Rowan is pretty sure that there is and he is on a mission to find the true heart of the region's culture.

An energetic one person show of performance poetry, theatre and stand-up; expect hallucinatory tales, laugh-out-loud satires and a few pauses for thought as Rowan meets a load of eccentric characters, writes a gangster rap about stotties and goes on a journey that shakes apart Northern stereotypes.

Hosted by Robbie Lee Hurst with supporting slots from Jessica Johnson and Alix Alixandra.
