Live Theatre was founded on Tyneside in 1973 by Geoff Gillham, Val McLane and amongst others, actor Tim Healy. The company originally toured its work regionally to non traditional theatre settings, such as community halls and working men's clubs, but the aim was to create a venue committed to creating plays with a regional identity for North East audiences and, in particular, for people who didn’t usually go to the theatre. Over 35 years later, the company has a fantastic, well equipped theatre in which to perform its plays, but the mission to create work which is challenging, popular and relevant to all, remains as important as ever.
