As heard on BBC Radio 4!
As a society we love stuff, it’s a statement about who we are and who we want to be. But apparently, this message is at odds with the looming environmental crisis. We’re now struggling to balance these worlds, to focus on the things that bring us real connections and nourish the soul. Award-winning Comedian and Award-winning Product Designer, Scott Bennett is desperately trying to cleanse his life of stuff, but is this even possible anymore?
Tour support for Mickey Flanagan, Rob Brydon Jason Manford, and John Bishop. The star of Live at the Apollo, The News Quiz, The Now Show, The Ultimate Choice and Chortle Best Club Comedian Nominee 2022.
“Without doubt live comedy’s best kept secret” Evening Standard
“Great material, great delivery, a very funny man” Rob Brydon
“Brilliantly funny, a joy to watch” Chris Ramsey
“Bennett is a stand-up in fine control of his material, his delivery and his image, a masterclass in adding a frisson of ‘in the moment’ unpredictability to otherwise tightly written routines” **** Chortle

(Due to the completion of restoration work over the summer, seats in the Gallery are on a new seating plan for this performance. The lower gallery is now named the Amphitheatre.)
In 2025 our Grade 1 listed Victorian Theatre was awarded £247,500 from The National Lottery Heritage fund, along with matched funding from the Tyne Theatre and Opera House preservation trust this has enabled us to carry out some much needed restoration to our historic Gallery tier.
The work, made possible thanks to money raised by National Lottery players commenced in Summer 2025 and involved the lowering and restoring of traditional sightlines to improve audience comfort, safety and view. This has been achieved by removing a timber overlay, fitted above the original seating rows in 1986, to restore the original seating layout, which improves the sightlines and requires less obstructive handrails. This work has also increased the capacity of the gallery tier. New seating designed in a heritage style, accounting for twenty-first century comfort, has been installed supported by a team of new and existing volunteers.
You can book for the gallery via the link below or on the tickets & times tab on the main booking page.
