May. You were beautiful.

1) Sizergh Castle, long awaited blue skies and sunshine and honestly I just have so much love for anywhere that serves banoffee ice cream 🙌
2) Welcoming in Beltane with our first May pole
3) Ouseburn late shows with Sarah & @meganpenelope, this was *such* a highlight. Art, drinks, company that makes you collapse to the floor laughing. Love it.
4) Also late shows, just because
5) It had been faaaar too long since we had done Keswick. Gorgeous.
6) And the best accommodation ever 😍
7) Hearing my favourite bittern across the marshes of @rspbleighton_moss
8) Sometimes the cards that come to you put things into words better than you ever could 🫶
9) Casual half marathon 💅
10) First cuckoo of the year!! 💛
11) Actually incredible food at @elliethompsson’s hen in York @gigglingsquid
12) My year so far 🙃
13) Still not finished the TV show but *this book* 😭 (One Day)
14) Future home please
15) When you abandon the musicals party you paid for to go to Cosy Joe’s because things are always better there. Not sure my singing was any better than my photography mind! @gemmaj098 @kat_mills21 @s_rhut @amysackwood @rlsmith___

What are we up to today? Oh... just reminiscing on how great the Late Shows was earlier this month.

Thank you to everyone who came out to watch independent short films made by our community, locally within the region, and by @youngwomensfilmacademy too!

We had a steady flow of people coming and going all night as we screened films in the Artisan Bar of the @thebiscuitfactorygallery

Thank you to @thelateshows for another amazing year of cultural events around Newcastle and Gateshead. As you can see, our photobooth was a hit! :D

✨ Better late than never… here’s a look back at an incredible Late Shows earlier this month! 🌙🏰

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to experience the Blackbird Tavern after dark🍻✨

We loved welcoming so many visitors through our doors and bringing a little piece of Newcastle’s history to life after hours.

We never had Pombears growing up cos 90s kid realness 🧸 who even had branded crisps!!!! 🧸 Safeway version all the way! So now it feels extra crazy to use the real deal in my art 30 years later!

A Pombear drawing by a child at The Late Shows a few weeks ago at my Brunch Club workshop that I can’t get over, the HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY lines instead of the nutritional values 😭 I can’t! Kids prioritising what’s right!

Plus a lil spicy Pombears x Diana tea towel I’ve now sold, which I did using a new process at the Northern School of Art earlier this year ✨

Life just keeps spinning back round in circles ➰

Here's the final story from our 'Night in Shakespeare's World' game! Thanks so much to Sara Salloum our lutenist for the evening, Richard O'Brien our resident poet, our student heloers Hannah and Tracy, and all the many researchers from our Medieval and Early Modern Studies group who shared ideas.

If you visited our venue, we'd love to hear your feedback - or do add your play plots to the comments!

The Late Shows are also running a visitor survey at uk.culturecounts.cc/s/6bHrRi
