Blackbird

Acclaimed as one of the most intense plays of the 21st century, Blackbird confronts audiences with uncomfortable truths and challenges the boundaries of redemption.

Years after their forbidden relationship was exposed, Una arrives unannounced to confront Ray in the aftermath of a shared past neither can escape. What follows is a tense, emotionally explosive reckoning that blurs the lines between guilt, desire, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.

Back at KXT after 2024’s thrilling Low Level Panic, don’t miss this chance to see the latest production from the young company that is taking Newcastle by storm, delivering fearless storytelling at its finest. Step into the heat of the moment – feel the tension, the passion, and the aftermath.

Blackbird is theatre that goes straight for the jugular.
