In the early 1980s, Northern Arts offered the Company revenue support to extend our role into touring village halls and community centres. Then, in 1984, we bought the Playhouse Theatre in Alnwick, a former cinema which we converted into a 150 capacity studio \/ rehearsal room, with ancillary offices, workshop and wardrobe facilities. The Company owned the Playhouse and leased the upstairs 262 seater auditorium to Alnwick District Playhouse Trust. This building was sold in February 2018 to the Northumberland County Council. We then moved to the Dovecote Centre in Amble where we have continued to produce touring theatre and provided the town with a cultural hub that provides access to music, theatre, film and art.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Where do we play?&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/www.northumberlandtheatre.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/NTC.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_font=&#8221;DM Sans|700|on||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;27px&#8221; body_font=&#8221;DM Sans||||||||&#8221; min_height=&#8221;624.1px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-4px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||2px|||&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium; color: #000000;\">The company\u2019s venues are predominantly village halls, community centres and other non-traditional theatre spaces in small rural towns and villages and theatres in the North East region and the Scottish Borders, however we do occasionally play larger commercial venues. NTC is also recognised nationally as one of the best small scale companies touring to non-traditional theatre spaces in the country. We regularly tour to Northumberland, Tyne and Wear, Durham, North Yorkshire and the Scottish borders. The majority of the touring comprises of one night performances, although we do play for longer in larger venues. NTC has commissioned over forty world premieres since the year 2010 and has a national touring profile of over 50%. We annually tour 2-3 high quality shows to rural areas and theatre-less zones. Over the last 6 years we have travelled over 42,037 miles in our truck with over 29,496 people having seen an NTC performance either online or at a venue within walking distance of their own home &#8211; a much more environmentally- friendly way of seeing theatre.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; top_divider_style=&#8221;slant2&#8243; top_divider_color=&#8221;#011589&#8243; top_divider_height=&#8221;55px&#8221; bottom_divider_style=&#8221;slant2&#8243; bottom_divider_color=&#8221;#011589&#8243; bottom_divider_height=&#8221;52px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_fullwidth_header title=&#8221;BOOK NTC&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; title_font=&#8221;DM Serif Text|700|||||||&#8221; title_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; title_text_color=&#8221;#011589&#8243; title_font_size=&#8221;46px&#8221; content_font=&#8221;DM Sans||||||||&#8221; content_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; content_text_color=&#8221;#011589&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; content_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; content_font_size_phone=&#8221;17px&#8221; content_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; content_letter_spacing_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; content_letter_spacing_phone=&#8221;0px&#8221; content_letter_spacing_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; content_line_height_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; content_line_height_phone=&#8221;1.1em&#8221; content_line_height_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">All NTC productions are suitable to tour small to mid-scale theatres, arts centres, village and community halls and anywhere else that we think can house our shows!
