The Customs House

A night at the opera?

Well, it’s quite likely at the Customs House in South Shields. Situated at the historic Mill Dam the Customs House (which was formerly a Customs House) has been converted into a multi use arts centre, featuring a theatre, cinema, art gallery, restaurant, rehearsal rooms and workshops.

You are as likely to see a play as you are a film, a pantomime, an opera, or a musical, as well as a series of live musical performances from leading talents and current stars.

This night time shot was taken just as it’s patrons were spilling out after enjoying “The Three Bears”.
