Dickens Unbound: A Dinner & Theatrical Experience

A Victorian world unfolds around you.

Step beyond the footlights and into the worlds of Charles Dickens in this immersive dinner and theatrical experience at The Assembly Rooms Newcastle.

Blending live performance, storytelling, music, candlelight, and a carefully curated four-course menu, Dickens Unbound transforms the historic ballroom into a living Dickensian spectacle. Characters emerge amongst the audience, scenes unfold across the room, and the boundaries between stage and guest disappear entirely.

Inspired by the works, worlds, and imagination of Charles Dickens, the evening combines dramatic performance with fine dining in one of Newcastle’s most historic settings.
