@dperks13 @jamieeastlake @LaurelsWhitley This makes me happy! If you're in the NE, and up for a couple of days, let me know if you're free for a cuppa!

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

It's an absolute treat to have joined @ArtsCentres - it's such a privilege to be a part of supporting and shouting about the brilliant (often hidden) work that's transforming communities across the UK.

[Future Arts Centres @ArtsCentres]

We're pleased to welcome Christine Lee, our new Administrative Director.

She'll be managing the day-to-day of Future Arts Centres, and has already hit the ground running.

@SiBeckwith @ace_national Woo hoo! Congrats Si, that's great news.

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

@GGGeorgiaHill @acegrams Congratulations Georgia, the team at @attheexchange are delighted to hear that!

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

If you haven't seen them all, then your biggest challenge is which one to see before the curtains* come down tomorrow night!

*None of these venues have actual curtains. So we're all using our metaphors and imaginations.

When life deals you lemons...prioritise what you love. So this week I've mostly been to the beach and the theatre.

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

Love It If We Beat Them @Livetheatreco, Whitley Bay Theatre Co @attheexchange & Burnout @LaurelsWhitley couldn't be much more different in terms of story and style. But each is a brilliant example of how theatre in the north east is flourishing...and it's ALL worth fighting for!

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

To say it's been a difficult week, would be an understatement.

I will say: please actively support the organisations, community groups & artists that mean the most to you.

We all have a part to play in protecting & nurturing a flourishing cultural community that's for everyone.

It is with a very heavy heart that we bring you the sad news that The Exchange Theatre charity, theatre and café bar will be closing on Monday 17 April 2023.

Spent a (surprisingly??) interesting evening learning and questioning plans for the North East Devolution from @NTCouncilTeam

I encourage anyone in the seven boroughs to complete the Consultation:

Loved receiving this little gift from our first free craft session at our Warm Welcome Wednesdays @attheexchange #northshields

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

Really looking forward to welcoming this to @attheexchange on Friday when @thesixtwenty will kick off their NE tour. I'm expecting my cheeks and sides to ache.

@arrivanortheast @Citymapper Well, the following bus 20 minutes later.

How can I petition for integrated live updates at stops and online? Surely it's not far off? I get buses in London. I don't in the north east. Not knowing if/when they're coming is the reason why. (That, and a disparate ticketing system)

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

Such a treat to be in the presence of @LawnmowersITC at @LiveTheatre this evening.

A (literally) life-affirming exploration of respect, representation, learning disability and what it means to being human.

Plus, a soaring soundtrack and a LOT of lip-syncing ❤️🎤

[@theexchange @attheexchange]

Today The Exchange Theatre will be hosting an exciting new gathering for artists, creatives, producers and cultural-makers

The first one being held today (Tuesday 12th April, 5:30pm - 7pm) at The Exchange Theatre, North Shields (Howard Street, NE30 1 SE)

@estherbeadle @MetroUKNews @attheexchange @SaltMarketUK @TERNSVenue @Old_LowLight Having only just relocated back to the North East I’m LOVING how many brilliant new venues there are kicking about. Looking forward to your article for exactly that reason.

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

@estherbeadle @MetroUKNews Obviously I’m biased for @attheexchange for theatre, music and a friendly pint. But also, so many brilliant music and cultural venues in sunny North Shields @SaltMarketUK @TERNSVenue @Old_LowLight

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

@LindaBxx What a fantastic achievement and wonderful moment to celebrate. Well done x

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

@My_Metro I left a hat on a metro today and your lost property team helped me get it back within an hour. I am SO impressed, thank you.

It’s stormy out there; hold on to your hats! 🙈

[Christine Lee @ChrisRuthLee]

@estherbeadle It was a super night. So glad you enjoyed it 🎶
