Final Globe Free Tickets Winners Take Exclusive
Look Behind The Scenes At Stockton Globe
Excitement grew this week
after winners from the final Globe Free Tickets Draw got the chance to go
behind the scenes at the Stockton Globe.
Winners were invited to the newly restored art-deco venue to take an immersive tour of the historic building and see the spectacular restoration for themselves.
The Globe Free Tickets Draw,
sponsored by Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council and Ambassador Theatre Group (ATG), ran for 12 months and
saw more than 500 tickets given away to residents across Stockton-on-Tees. In
May, residents were given one final chance to win sought-after tickets to Stockton
Globe with an extra special final prize.
The final ticket giveaway saw 10 winners receive 5 pairs of tickets each, to a range of upcoming shows including: Fontaines DC, Katherine Ryan: Missus, Jools Holland And His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra, Jurassic Live, and Sir Ranulph Fiennes: Living Dangerously.
As a final thank you, the selection
of winners were invited to visit the Stockton venue earlier this week to take
part in a behind the scenes tour of the Grade II listed building. The tour
provided a unique insight into areas of the theatre usually off limits to the
public. From backstage
spaces to dressing rooms and not forgetting the famous Globe stage,
where once stood iconic performers such as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.
Winners were welcomed inside by Councillor Steve Nelson,
the Council's Cabinet Member for
Health, Leisure and Culture, who said: “The hundreds of lucky ticket draw
winners have been able to enjoy a range of exciting performances over the last
year and it was a pleasure to welcome the final draw winners to the Globe.
“It’s
a stunning venue steeped in history and I’m sure the draw winners enjoyed their
exclusive look around.
“And
it’s been a great first year for the newly-restored Globe, with lots of top
acts like Paloma Faith, Ronan Keating and Jason Manford performing in our
Borough and lots more to come in the next few months.”
Winner Anne Cowan, from Fairfield,
Stockton-on-Tees, said: “I was delighted to find out I had won the final Globe
Free Tickets Draw! I’m most excited to come and see Jools Holland in November.”
Me and my sister thoroughly enjoyed our excellent tour of
The Globe. It was lovely to see all aspects of the building and behind the
scenes. The venue is beautiful. Our tour guide Josh was an absolute wealth of
information which made it all the more interesting and enjoyable.”
