The List

Phoenix Theatre

The Phoenix Theatre came about through the efforts of the Blyth Arts and Community Association, which drew on Lottery funds and other sources to replace their former venue with a new building. It hosts touring music and theatre shows and also presents productions by amateur companies. The theatre also operates a Young Phoenix programme, offering development, training and theatre education to young people. The nearest train station is in the neighbouring town of Cramlington; the X13 bus runs every 30 minutes between Cramlington station and Blyth town centre.
