Newcastle Theatre Company’s Indie Season is a unique and exciting initiative that has brought a breath of fresh air to the region’s theatre scene. The Indie Season features an eclectic mix of independent theatre productions that showcase the talents of both emerging artists and established professionals. This year we have something to chill, something to bring on the tears, a musical collaboration with an incredible local company, and a look back at the social mores of the 80s…

What makes the Indie Season so special is the intimate setting of our theatre. This enables audiences to fully engage with the productions and the artists themselves, creating a more immersive and interactive experience. In addition, the Indie Season provides an important platform for local artists to develop their skills and showcase their work. By fostering a culture of creativity and innovation, the Indie Season has played an instrumental role in supporting the development of the broader arts community in Newcastle and the wider region.

The Indie Season has also been a great success in terms of developing and showcasing local talent. By providing a platform for emerging artists, the initiative has helped to nurture the next generation of theatre professionals in the region. Additionally, the Indie Season has attracted established professionals to Newcastle, providing an opportunity for them to showcase their work in a new and exciting setting.
