Sunderland Empire Tickets & What's On

Find tickets for upcoming creative learning events at theatres across the UK, offering hands-on workshops, storytelling sessions and behind-the-scenes experiences designed to bring younger audiences and curious adults closer to the world of theatre. Family workshops connect children with current touring productions through arts, crafts and on-stage activities, while gentle storytelling sessions introduce the very youngest theatregoers to live performance. Regular backstage tours take adults and families behind the curtain of historic working theatres across the network, exploring stage machinery, architecture and theatrical history rarely accessible to public audiences. Many events tie into Key Stage learning topics and are popular with both family audiences and school group bookings.
