NewmanEJ Theatre is the oldest form of mass entertainment in Britain. Its ideas and performers, producers technical provide part of the circuit of talent that goes round and round. Without this chain in the link and a laboratory for ideas the whole cultural scene will be weaker.

NewmanEJ Passionate, human, positive, determined. Tugs at my heartstrings, because this is my world. After living and loving in it for 40 years, I’m watching it on the brink of collapse, but marvelling at the people who are determined not to let that happen. I’m ready to join the fight.
