About Phoenix Theatre
The Phoenix Theatre is Blyth's much-loved community theatre, located on the corner of Beaconsfield Street and Wellington Street, just a two-minute walk from the town centre. With a 300-seat auditorium, it hosts a varied programme of amateur and professional performances throughout the year, including drama, comedy, music, pantomime and children's shows. Run as a registered charity, the Phoenix is the cultural heart of Blyth and a venue that the whole community is rightly proud of.
