1st May - 1st May 2026
Celebrated new play comes to Amble
Time: 7.00pm
Location: Amble Parish Hall Dovecote Street
Highlights Rural Touring Scheme brings ‘The Light House,’ to the Parish Hall, Dovecote St. on Friday, 1 May.
Love is a complicated business. It gets even more complicated when the person you love doesn't want to be alive.
Tender, funny and defiantly hopeful, The Light House is a real-life story of falling in love and staying in love, even when the lights go out and you're lost in the dark.
With puppetry, clowning and audience participation, The Light House is the highly acclaimed debut play from Alys Williams.
Writer and performer Alys said, "”Theatre right now needs to buzz with liveness. I want audiences to feel seen, and implicated, and held.
A man came to 'The Light House' alone and sat at the back. I chose him to play 'Dad'. Afterwards, he said that he usually hates participation but had found himself hoping to be chosen because he wanted ‘to help, somehow.’ He said it had been ‘an honour.’”
We have a bar, a raffle and accept cash or cards.
Tickets cost £15 or £10 for under 25s. They are available from N & F Young, 8 Queen Street, phone 07724687107, on the door and online at www.highlightsnorth.co.uk -

Warkworth Drama Group
Time: 7.00pm for 7.30pm
Location: Warkworth War Memorial Hall
Saucy, sexy and very funny
Alan Bennett's rollicking and raunchy comedy 'Habeas Corpus' is to be staged in May by Warkworth Drama Group.
Directed by Duncan Cooper and Meg Dixon, the play is a pacy and highly improbable romp which pokes fun at the at the ludicrous aspirant aristocracy of middle-class England.
Meg said “It is a satirical merry-go-round of antics at the Wicksteed home: family, friends and the sexual satisfaction of the 'corpus' (body} are the ruling passions in this farcical comedy of ill-manners and principal characters in various stages of undress.
"Through a series of mistaken identities and carnal encounters, one motto holds fast: 'He whose lust lasts, lasts longest.' "
Licensed bar.
Tickets are £10 and can be purchased at Warkworth Post Office and village store, N&F Young of Amble, and at the door.

Never Mind the Sherlocks!
Time: 7.00pm for 7.30 pm
Location: Warkworth War Memorial Hall
Far Horizon Voices, the Warkworth-based acting group, are bringing world famous detective Sherlock Holmes and his loyal but dim-witted sidekick Dr Watson, back to the wilds of Northumberland in a brand new, irreverent comedy by local playwright Dave Stockwin.
During the play, under the disapproving eye of Conan Doyle, the hapless duo must adapt to the arctic conditions of the North East, while battling with local cuisine, an unintelligible villain and a feisty Mrs Hudson in their quest to uncover the dark secrets of Bluebell End. What could possibly go wrong?
Proceeds going to North Northumberland Hospice Care.
Tickets cost £10 and will be available at N&F Young Amble, Warkworth Post Office and Store, fhvtickets@yahoo.com or at the door. Licensed bar
