Following an impressive £5.5m renovation which joined together four historic, listed buildings, Live Theatre has recently reopened it's doors as a beautiful, 21st century new writing theatre for the region.
Live Theatre explores ideas in new writing and thus creates and presents work that is challenging, popular and relevant. Their recent production of The Pitmen Painters which premiered at Live Theatre has received international acclaim, even enjoying a successful run on Broadway.
