THE CHRISTMAS CRACKER IS BACK!

We're absolutely delighted to announce that the brilliant EMMA DORAN will be joining us at Newcastle Community Cinema on Monday 28th December for our annual Christmas Cracker!

And what a way to round off the year!

One of Ireland's funniest and most exciting comedians, Emma has gone from performing her very first stand-up gig while on maternity leave to selling out theatres across Ireland and the UK, including multiple nights at Dublin's legendary Vicar Street.

With over 318,000 social media followers, appearances on Amazon Prime's Last One Laughing Ireland, The Tommy Tiernan Show and Celebrity Gogglebox, not to mention her hugely popular Keep It Tight podcast with Deirdre O'Kane, Emma has become one of the most recognisable faces in Irish comedy.

Her recent Dilemma tour sold over 20,000 tickets across more than 60 shows, and her brilliantly relatable observations on family life, motherhood and the everyday madness of being human have won her a legion of fans.

Expect sharp observations, hilarious storytelling and plenty of laughs as we round off 2026 in style!
