The home of the award winning Northern Stage Ensemble, this is a venue which programmes the offbeat, the challenging, or the purely local, together with world names in music, comedy, dance, and theatre. As a result, the Playhouse has won a national reputation for excellence, and a visit can be rewarding and entertaining. Customer-friendly ticket deals are winning new patrons. Decried somewhat unfairly by some as a 70's concrete bunker, the Playhouse is a pleasant venue and has the only fully non-smoking licensed bar/cafe in the city centre. This serves freshly cooked food and snacks from 10am until 3pm for members of the general public, and later main meals as part of the "pre-show meal deal" for ticket holders. There are some sign language performances, and an induction loop, for the hard of hearing.
