A Play, A Pie and a Pint

Enjoy a 50-minute new play from an up-and coming writer, alongside a delicious pie and an ice-cold pint.
Northern Stage are teaming up with Glasgow’s iconic Òran Mór theatre to bring A Play, A Pie and a Pint to Newcastle.
Following an open call of writers based in the North East and Glasgow, Northern Stage and A Play, A Pie and a Pint will support one up-and-coming writer to showcase a brand-new play which will be performed at both venues this autumn.
Writer and title to be announced soon!
Choose from cabaret seating or enjoy a handheld pie with your pint in our stalls.
Wine and soft drinks are also available. Vegan and gluten free pies are available – please select your pie when choosing your ticket type.
Grab your early bird discounted ticket before the title announcement for the best seat at the best price.
With 30 brand-new plays a year, A Play, A Pie and A Pint is the most prolific producer of new writing in the UK and has been entertaining (and feeding!) audiences since 2004.
