Happy 175th Birthday to the Old Lady of Grey Street!
One of the theatre's in Newcastle -Theatre Royal- celebrated it's 175th birthday this weekend. To mark the occasion, they held a birthday street party over four nights. The Birthday Blaze consisted of hourly light and firework shows after dark, birthday cake for everyone, street performances, and lots of fun - all for free. I love the theatre, and our Theatre Royal is a special one. Here's to the next big milestone! :O)
These are a few of my favourite photographs from Sunday night festivities, along with a little video of the light show. I apologise for the naff quality of the video; it was taken on my phone and I was snapping pictures at the same time :O/ All of my (decent) photographs from the night are viewable via my flickr page.
Birthday Blaze Footage:
There are some photographs from the Quayside, taken on the same night, in another flickr set too. I am a little bit chuffed with how my Swing Bridge/High Level Bridge shot came out, and I have also come to realise how much I love the Sage Music Centre. I love my city :O)
