Two lads. Zero cash. One mission: get into St James' Park for the season. How hard can it be?
Based on Jonathan Tulloch's novel The Season Ticket, which became the cult Geordie film Purely Belter, Olivier award winning Jamie Eastlake's adaptation hurtles its way back down Grey Street after a smash hit run last year.
Gerry and Sewell live in Gateshead. They've got nowt. But they are desperate for one thing. A season ticket to their beloved Toon. But after years of living in austerity and seeing their football club shelled out by a cockney bloke who sells sports tat, life is a struggle. Until they decide they're getting those season tickets. And now they've got their mission, nowt is gonna stand in their way. Whey, apart from maybe a few radgie charvers, the social and the odd madcap scrap merchant.
Starring original cast members; Dean Logan, Jack Robertson and Becky Clayburn as Gerry, Sewell and Tyneside, alongside Erin Mullen who joined the cast last year as Bridget.
Gerry & Sewell blends live music, puppet dogs, and the magic of Wor Flags (plus the odd star cameo) into a wild, funny, and heartfelt tribute to black-and-white dreams.
For the Toon. And for anyone who's ever chased something that matters.

A Geordie exile
I flew in from the USA Today and as I am originally from Newcastle I thought this would be an interesting show to see.
I have read the book, The Season Ticket, so was familiar with the story line.
I thoroughly enjoyed the show. It was funny and sad at the same time. The acting and performance was outstanding, I would highly recommend.

Life-enhancing but patchy!
This show began in a very small venue and has not quite made the leap to a bigger theatre (outside Newcastle, where it must have had a lot of football fans already onside). If you are expecting a slick and glossy West End production, this is not for you! Great acting by the main protagonists, but the story was disjointed and at times quite hard to follow; the musical and dance interludes were good in parts but there were either too few or too many! For a show with musical ambitions, they were maybe too few and too bitty. I longed for the seemingly considerable potential to let rip more: these parts of the show needed a more sustained energy. Despite these criticisms, and the depressing backdrop, all in all seeing the show was a joyous experience, and the puppets were wonderful!

Fantastic West End move
This amazing show started in a small social club in Newcastle. It is now in the West End! So well deserved; it is great. It has the pub theatre vibe combined with West End energy.

So so good, a gem of a show!!! Hilarious, heartwarming, thoughtful. Such a good night!
Everyone needs to go see this, it was such a good show. So so funny!! The audience were laughing from the rooftops. With touches of real life struggles a lot of us can relate to. Such a great atmosphere at a really cosy theatre

LIVELY
The show was a lot of fun. Some ver funny and touching moments. Good use of music. Found the storyline confusing at times. The core idea - trying to find ways to find money to get season tickets got lost. Lead actors were very good.
