The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation, part of Newcastle Hospitals Charity, is thrilled to announce its 11th annual yuletide entertainment show, Christmas at the Cathedral, will take place on Thursday, 14th December.
This year’s show promises to be a night of unforgettable entertainment, with a mix of celebrities and local stars performing songs, readings, and comedy sketches, all infused with a heart-warming Christmas theme.
The line-up of performers remains a closely guarded secret, adding an element of surprise and anticipation to the show. In previous years, the event has seen renowned stars like Tim Healy, Melanie Hill, Billy Mitchell, Chelsea and Jill Halfpenny, Charlie Hardwick, Catherine Dryden, Denise Welch, Jimmy Nail, Paul Smith, Rachel Unthank, Steffen Peddie, Stephen Tomkinson, The Caffreys, The Futureheads, and Lorraine Crosby take the stage.
The talented team behind the show joined Lady Elsie Robson at the Sir Bobby Robson Cancer Trials Research Centre at the Northern Centre for Cancer Care, Freeman Hospital, to find out more about the vital work the event is helping to fund.
Thanks to the support of attendees and sponsors, including this year’s main sponsor Orbis Support Ltd from North Shields, the Christmas at the Cathedral show has become a cherished tradition for the community. State-of-the-art lighting and sound systems will transform Newcastle Cathedral into an atmospheric theatrical venue, and large TV screens will ensure that every moment of the entertainment is enjoyed by all.
Lady Elsie expressed her excitement, stating:”This is such a special event for us every year. They keep the line up secret from all the audience, including me, and I love being surprised by the talented performers who take to the stage. I think that’s a huge part of its charm. The cathedral is a beautiful venue and it’s a wonderful mix of music, fun and Christmas tradition that I’m greatly looking forward to.”
