Rehearsals are underway!

 Our cast is announced!

Rehearsals are underway for the North East’s amateur premiere of the fantastic hit musical ‘Bonnie & Clyde’. We are absolutely delighted to have the rights to perform this incredible show in May 2023. 

Our auditions are over and we have a superb production team and cast to help bring this beautiful, brutal love story to life. This production sees many of the cast and production team back together following last year’s award winning ‘Young Frankenstein’, as well as welcoming some amazingly talented new members to our theatre family. 

On Friday, we cast the final piece in our jigsaw- Young Clyde, and we’re delighted to welcome Freddie Taylor to the company as he takes his first ‘big’ stage role and his first leap into the world of musical theatre with JMTC.

Tickets will be on sale via TicketSource very soon and you will be able to click the link at the side of this page. Keep following us on social media for news and views as we draw ever nearer to opening night on 10th May. 

Summer is here!

And just like that, Summer is here!

We had an amazing time performing Mel Brooks’ “Young Frankenstein” and our audiences loved it. We had super feedback on social media too. After all of the hard work and preparation, we can’t believe it’s over. It was so good to be back on stage again after a long break. 

We’re busy rehearsing for our Summer Concert which is in celebration of Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee. We'll be performing songs from some of the Queen’s favourite musicals. 

Tickets are on sale for our Pantomime which is ‘Dick Whittington’. You can get those from the side of this page or via Facebook and TicketSource.

We’re Back with a Monster of a Show!

 It’s been so long! After almost two, long years we are back in rehearsals and preparing for our next show. And it’s a MONSTER! JMTC are delighted to announce that in May 2022 we’ll be performing the North East Amateur Premiere of Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein. You can book tickets directly from the link at the side of this page. Look out on our social media for news and snippets from rehearsals. We can’t wait to be back on stage doing what we love to do- performing!

‘What’s the Buzz?’

We’re so excited here at JMTC because rehearsals for our next show in May 2020, ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ have begun! The last few Tuesdays have been spent with the ensemble rehearsing some of the amazing numbers like ‘What’s the Buzz?’, ‘Hosanna’ and ‘The Temple’. It’s already taking shape on the floor and sounding great. Our principal cast sacrificed Valentine’s night so they could rehearse together- that’s love for you! 

The box office is now open and you can grab your tickets either online or by phone. All details are in the poster below. A link to our online ticket sales is just at the side of this page. 

It’s set to be a spectacular experience with a new take on this classic show. So, get your diary out and set a date to come and see us. 

Panto Prep has begun!

Preparations are well underway for our 2019 pantomime, ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. Tickets are now on sale and there’s an early bird saver for just £8 per ticket if you book before 15th September. You can book online using the link at the side of this page.

Make Sure you see it!

Our set is in place and it’s so complex that we had it put into place a week earlier than usual to allow the cast to get used to it and to allow the crew to have extra rehearsals to have everything running smoothly. This is a BIG show!!!

We received a lovely message from the sister of our very own Mrs Hedgehog who was visiting the North East and she managed to get along to our rehearsal on Sunday:

You can book by clicking the links at the side of our blog. ‘The Wind in the Willows’ is such a heartwarming show filled with wonderful characters and very catchy songs. This is going to be a show you’ll want to come back to!

Photoshoot Day

Photoshoot day is always a great day! An early start and off along country roads to the most beautiful, traditional Gypsy Caravan for our first venue of the day. 

Then, back over to Lambton Estate to be met by the amazing Bob Duff. Photographs by the river and then at the wonderful Lambton Castle. A huge thanks also to Adam Donald for letting us use his fab sports car. A productive morning.
