Bristol Street Motors is continuing its backing for the Newcastle Theatre Royal .
The partnership has been extended for a further year.
Over the last 12 months, a range of hybrid and electric vehicles have been parked on the terrace outside the theatre’s portico, to highlight upcoming performances. The current Ford Kuga ST Line X Plug-In Hybrid on show, promoting the smash-hit musical The Bodyguard, represents Bristol Street Motors’ not too distant Morpeth Ford dealership, in addition to the new flagship Newcastle Ford dealership Bristol Street Motors is set to open later this year on Scotswood Road.
Robert Forrester, chief executive of Bristol Street Motors, said: “We have been proud to work with Newcastle Theatre Royal to further cement its position as the leading cultural venue in the City.
“Many colleagues have enjoyed fabulous shows over the last year and I am certain that both the theatre and ourselves have benefitted from the partnership.”
Marianne Locatori, chief executive of Newcastle Theatre Royal, added: “Bristol Street Motors has been a significant supporter of Newcastle Theatre Royal and we look forward to building on the successful partnership in the coming year.
“As a registered charity that receives no regular funding, local business support like this is vital to enable us to continue to present world class performances on our stage, entertaining hundreds of thousands of people from across the North East, as well as deliver our creative engagement work across our local communities.”
