MYSTERY MUSICAL VOL. 3

Get ready for the ultimate guessing game in theatre! The Very Popular Theatre Company is thrilled to announce the return of its Mystery Musical with Volume 3, following the roaring success of 2018’s The Addams Family and 2021’s Spamalot (*we still get a bit of PTSD saying these names out loud!). This time, we’re pulling out all the stops for a show that’s a little more left of field – an often-overlooked gem that’s sure to surprise and delight our audiences.

​

What exactly is a Mystery Musical, you ask? It’s the boldest theatre experiment in town! When you purchase a ticket, you’re signing up for a night of sheer theatrical mystery. No spoilers, no hints, no titles – not until you’re comfortably in your seat and the lights dim to reveal the opening notes. It’s a thrill ride for those who love the unknown, crave adventure, and are ready to experience the unexpected.

​

But we’re not totally heartless! Here’s a clue to whet your appetite: Mystery Musical Vol. 3 is a show that graced Broadway after the year 1825. Confused? Perfect! That’s just the way we like it. This is your chance to be part of the exclusive few who will experience this forgotten classic come to life on stage.

​

Auditions are now open, so if you’ve ever wanted to be part of the most talked-about secret in Newcastle, now’s your moment. And for those eager audiences, tickets will go on sale in January 2025. 

​

Dare to guess? Join us, and prepare for a night full of surprises!
