Singer-songwriter Nadine Shah has described taking the chance to work in theatre this summer as a "no-brainer" as she prepares to make her Live Theatre stage debut in Newcastle.
The South Tyneside-born talent, who has a new album Kitchen Sink now out, will be spreading her wings and earning more acting credentials when she takes the starring role at Live Theatre in a show inspired by her first album. It promises to be a double treat for fans as the news follows the recent announcement that Nadine will be taking part in the Quayside theatre's 50-year birthday celebrations by co-writing a play called To Be A Young Man.
It is now revealed that she will take a starring role in it too when it opens at the Quayside theatre in May. Nadine - who has acted before, making her debut in A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Northern Stage in October 2022 - admitted: "Acting doesn’t come easy to me but sadistically I enjoy the challenge!"
