A Walk On Part
Wednesday 11 May to Saturday 4 June Live Theatre presents, in association with New Writing North, the World Premiere of A Walk On Part The Fall of New LabourFrom the diaries of Chris Mullin Adapted for the stage by Michael Chaplin Directed by Max Roberts
Chris Mullin served Sunderland South as its MP for 23 years, retiring last year after serving as a Minister in three Government departments, including the Foreign Office, as well as a distinguished and influential backbencher. Shortly after leaving Parliament, he published the second volume of his diaries to universal acclaim, many critics suggesting that they offer the clearest insight into the Blair and Brown years. On the first anniversary of the fall of New Labour, Live Theatre brings Mullin’s witty, irreverent take on contemporary politics to the stage, reflecting three worlds during a time of crisis and change – the febrile political village of Westminster, the flash points of Africa he toured as a Minister and the fragile community he served as its MP.
This is the first outing of this newly staged production which, including extracts read from the diaries and dramatised scenes involving everyone from Tony Blair to African refugees to a Durham taxi driver, promises to be a revealing and entertaining evening of theatre.

Wednesday 6 April to Saturday 1 October The Pitmen Painters
Originally produced at Live Theatre in 2007, and following sell-out seasons at the National Theatre and on Broadway, Bill Kenwright presents the award-winning play The Pitmen Painters which embarks on its national tour this spring prior to opening in the West End.
Written by Lee Hall, creator of the worldwide sensation Billy Elliot, The Pitmen Painters, has received huge critical acclaim and won the Evening Standard award for Best New Play.
In 1934, a group of Ashington miners hired a professor to teach an art appreciation class.
Rapidly abandoning theory in favour of practice, the pitmen began to paint. Within a few years the most avant-garde artists became their friends and their work was acquired by prestigious collections; but every day they worked, as before, down the mine. Examining the lives of a group of ordinary men that do extraordinary things, The Pitmen Painters is a humorous, deeply moving and timely look at art, class and politics.
Don’t miss the play when it returns to Newcastle from 8 to 13 August where it will be performed at The Journal Tyne Theatre. For more details about the tour visit www.live.org.uk/ontour
