\nA sizzling new schedule of shows will reignite Newcastle audiences\u2019 passion for live performance following the online launch of Civic Theatre\u2019s new subscription season.
\nDelivering everything from stand-up comedy and contemporary circus to deeply moving theatrical pieces, the new season has been carefully curated to suit a wide range of ages and tastes.
\nNewcastle Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes said the launch of Civic Theatre\u2019s 2022 season comes at an exciting time for Novocastrians, with restrictions set to be rolled back even further from 15 December.
\n\u201cCivic Theatre\u2019s season theme for 2022 is \u2018reignite\u2019, which is all about supporting our city’s lively cultural scene after yet another COVID-disrupted year and encouraging Novocastrians to head back to the theatre to experience the wonder of live performance with family and friends,\u201d Cr Nelmes said.
\n\u201cFew industries have been harder hit by the economic impact of the pandemic than the performing arts. This new season of shows provides a highly enjoyable means for Novocastrians to show their support for this sector, especially as restrictions continue to ease.\u201d
\nCivic Theatre Manager Leonie Wallace said the new schedule for 2022 covers a wide range of genres and styles that will appeal to audiences of all ages, including new offerings and both local and national touring productions.
\nThe 2022 season will see the return of the hugely popular Sydney and Melbourne Comedy Festivals, as well as shows by Newcastle\u2019s own Stray Dogs Theatre Company, Catapult Dance Choreographic Hub and for the first time, Knock and Run Theatre Company.
\n\u201cFamilies will enjoy\u00a0Erth’s Prehistoric World<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0Wolfgang’s Magical Musical Circus<\/em>\u00a0and musical fans will love\u00a0The Sapphires<\/em>\u00a0by HIT Productions. Main stage theatrical productions in 2022 include\u00a0Jane Eyre<\/em>\u00a0by shake&stir theatre co. and\u00a0Black Cockatoo<\/em>\u00a0by Ensemble Theatre,\u201d Ms Wallace said.
\n\u201cLocal productions in 2022 will feature\u00a0Creativity<\/em>, an original new work from perennial favourites Stray Dogs Theatre Co.,\u00a0Grappling\u00a0<\/em>from the Edge by Catapult Dance, and\u00a0Airness\u00a0<\/em>from Knock & Run Theatre Company.
\n“Civic Theatre customers are invited to enjoy pre-show drinks and live local music on opening night, and for selected performances a new pre-theatre dining experience is just steps away in the Banquet Room at City Hall.”
\nWith the purchase of three shows or more, theatregoers become a Civic Theatre Subscriber and will enjoy added benefits such as free parking, discounted tickets, access to the best seats and discounted pre-show drinks in the foyer.
\nThe 2022 Civic Theatre Subscription Season goes on sale to the general public on Friday 3 December, following a special presale for current subscribers.
