SUMMARY:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club: David Hadingham\, Mike Milligan & Lee Kyle
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly comedy night from Hilarity Bites Comedy Club with live standup comedians David Hadingham\, Mike Milligan\, and host Lee Kyle \n\n▪️ David Hadingham\n \nLike a mad Phil Daniels\, Dave Hadingham is a bulldog of a comedian\, and the animal allegories don’t stop there. In an affectionately\, snarling\, ranting and raving set\, Dave is not afraid to make you laugh about anything (remember the dogs). \nAt his best in the live arena\, Dave has been a professional comic since May 1996. Intense and anecdotal\, he keeps audiences hooked right up to the last punchline as he presents his unique and often warped view of everyday life. \n“Hilariously funny with notable precision and charisma” – The Scotsman \n\n▪️ Mike Milligan \nHaving earned his keep as a teacher in Newcastle\, Mike Milligan knows a thing or two about ‘audience interaction’\, and he majors on it. However this Geordie quickly found classrooms weren’t the best place to share his sharp\, witty banter! \nNow firmly established as a top stand-up comedian\, Mike’s teaching days are on summer vacation indefinitely. In place is a wealth of gigs on the national and international comedy circuit; including both compering and headlining shows for The Comedy Club\, the Comedy Store and Jongleurs’ clubs and countless more. \n“Snappy\, sharp and packed full of belly laughs… stole the show” – Edinburgh Evening News \n\n▪️ Lee Kyle \nIn his never ending quest not to have a proper job\, Lee Kyle spent time as part of an all male Spice Girls tribute act before spending a decade as a professional wrestler. \nManaging the difficult trick of being both odd and relatable\, he did a show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2013 that he heard was well received but he doesn’t read reviews because his psyche is too fragile to handle them so he isn’t totally sure what they said. \n“Had everyone on their feet – Sublimely ridiculous” – The Northern Echo \n\nPlease Note: Line-ups are subject to change in extreme\, and unavoidable\, circumstances.\nShow may contain strong language and adult themes. \n\nTickets: £12\nDoors From 7.00PM\nShow Starts: 8.00PM (Approximately)\n18+ Only\nUnreserved Seating\nBefore attending please read our Covid-19 Disclaimer and check out our Venue Info Page\n\n\nHow To Buy Your Ticket\n\nBuy Online\, using the box below\nVisit The Forum Reception \nCall us on: 01325 363135\nPlease note our reception and phone line are not always manned especially at busy events\, please see our Opening Hours & Venue Info for more info.\n\nA non-refundable 50p booking fee is added to each ticket when buying online\nOn the door ticket sales are subject to availability and not guaranteed\nTickets also available from Hilarity Bites

SUMMARY:Live and Local feat. Corduroy Boy | James Witham | Sasha Sky
DESCRIPTION:Live and Local is a monthly gig night showcasing and celebrating North East artists and bands of all ages.  \nCorduroy Boy: Corduroy Boy are a female-fronted DIY 5-piece\, taking inspiration from high energy psych rock\, groove focused alternative rock\, and the dynamic textures found in modern post-punk. We came together with a shared interest in alternative music. Our songwriting reflects this\, taking advantage of exotic keys\, odd time signatures and layered textures. We strive to find the balance between the satisfying familiar and the unexpected. \nJames Witham: At just 19 years old\, James Witham is carving out a distinctive voice in the UK’s new wave of indie talent. Hailing from Teesside\, James blends the raw honesty of classic singer-songwriter storytelling with the expansive textures of modern alternative music — creating a sound that feels both deeply personal and bound for big stages. James first introduced himself with his debut single “Walls”\, a heartfelt and soaring track that captures his knack for emotional lyricism and anthemic choruses. The song resonated with listeners for its mix of youthful vulnerability and confidence beyond his years — setting the tone for what’s to come.Now\, James is stepping into a new era. His latest material pushes further into his creative vision — a blend of anthemic hits and more psychedelic\, spacey sounds that reflect his curiosity and evolving artistry. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Sam Fender\, The War on Drugs\, and early Radiohead\, his music explores themes of growth\, identity\, and the restless energy of youth\, all filtered through shimmering guitars\, cinematic synths\, and powerful vocal performances.\nWith his heartfelt songwriting and magnetic stage presence\, James Witham is quickly emerging as one of the North East’s most exciting young artists — one whose sound is both grounded in Teesside grit and changeling modern direction.\n \nSasha Sky: Singer-songwriter from Darlington. With a strong passion for music\, singing and songwriting  but didn’t take the leap to pursue it for a long time due to extreme fear. Beginning her journey in  January 2021\, as an independent artist in amongst the UK lockdown. Sasha has released 6 singles (with a 7th on the way on February 13th!) \n\n\nTickets £4.00 \nDoors From: 6:30PM\nShow Starts: 7:00PM (Approximately)\n16+\nStanding Event\nBefore attending please read our Covid-19 Disclaimer and check out our Venue Info Page\n\n\nHow To Buy Your Ticket \n\nBuy Online\, using the box below\nVisit The Forum Reception \nCall us on: 01325 363135\nPlease note our reception and phone line are not always manned especially at busy events\, please see our Opening Hours & Venue Info for more info.\n\nA non-refundable 50p booking fee is added to each ticket when buying online.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: The Land Remembers & In the Veins (2025)
DESCRIPTION:Film screening and discussion\, part of the Reimagining Regional Policy Through Creative Engagement exhibition \nFind Out More \n\nThe Land Remembers (2025)\nDirected by Azadeh Fatehrad\nProduced by Northern Heartlands \nIn the Veins (2025)\nDirected by Ben Lamb\nProduced by Yorkshire & North East Film Archive \n  \nThe Land Remembers (2025)\nThe Land Remembers is a place-based portrait of High Nature Value (HNV) farming in the uplands. Through seasonal rhythms and everyday practices — light winter grazing\, late hay cuts\, hand tools such as the scythe — the film presents biodiversity as a living presence: orchids\, red campion\, globeflower\, curlew\, nuthatch. \nSet within a mosaic of hay meadows\, hedgerows\, and stone walls\, the film honours traditional land management shaped by timing\, stewardship windows\, and intergenerational knowledge. Ecological care unfolds in pauses for nesting birds\, the cut–lie–remove logic of soil health\, and peatland re-wetting to retain water and carbon. \nSocial and cultural life are equally central: kitchen tables\, darts nights\, women’s often-unseen “domestic ecologies\,” and shared workshops that bring long-time farmers and newcomers together. \nAt a moment of rapid environmental and economic change\, the film presents upland farming as a living climate–nature solution — safeguarding habitats\, water quality\, and carbon — while acknowledging real pressures\, from shifting policies to labour shortages and housing demand. By translating policy into lived scenes\, The Land Remembers offers a grounded model of resilience rooted in place. \nThe film was made as part of Creatively Connected\, a creative arts programme led by the North Pennines National Landscape team in partnership with the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority through the Tees-Swale: naturally connected programme. It was made possible with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund and supported by Arts Council England. Creatively Connected is produced by Northern Heartlands. \n  \nIn the Veins (2025)\n“In the Veins” is a short film that resonates across generations\, drawing on over a century of archive footage to illuminate the mining heritage of Yorkshire and the North East of England. \n“Some people have blood running through their veins\, I think we’ve got coal dust!” – Miner’s daughter \nMore than a history lesson\, the film is an emotional journey through hardship and hope\, division and defiance\, perseverance and pride. For centuries\, mining communities built livelihoods\, identities\, and collective strength around coal. The devastating decline of the industry\, culminating in one of the longest industrial disputes of the twentieth century\, left lasting social and economic impacts that are still felt today. \nFrom the growth of mining villages and the solidarity forged underground\, to activist movements such as Women Against Pit Closures\, In the Veins reflects on both the prosperity and the loss embedded in this history. At a time of climate urgency\, it also prompts reflection on what a “just transition” from fossil fuels to cleaner energy might mean for communities shaped by extraction. \nCommissioned by Teesside University with support from the AHRC Impact Acceleration Account\, and produced by the Yorkshire and North East Film Archive\, the film serves as a catalyst for dialogue — learning from the past to help shape the future. \n\n\nTickets: Free (Please Book a free ticket below)\nDoors From: 6.30PM\nFilm Starts: 7:00PM (Approximately)\nUnder 16’s Must Be Accompanied by an adult\nUnreserved Seating \nBefore attending please read our Covid-19 Disclaimer and check out our Venue Info Page\n\n\n Press Release\nPress Release Alt Link (PDF)
