Mortal Fools Ensemble Young Company are back with a brand-new contemporary theatre show, WIRED. Devised and performed by young people showcasing an original soundtrack, bold set design and their incredible talent, insights and lived experience.

They’re bringing their signature mix of raw, honest storytelling to dig into what it really means to grow up in a digital world, and all the tension, pressure, drama, and connection that comes with it.

This isn’t just a theatre show, it’s real talk about how social media, AI, and being constantly online shape who we are and how we feel in 2026.

Does the way we live online change how we connect with each other IRL? What happens when our digital lives and the real world collide? And what would it be like to grow up in a world without the internet?

Get ready for a show that hits close to home: bold, emotional, funny, and unfiltered.

This show is for teenagers, young people, parents/carers and folks that support and work with teens. Suitable for ages 11+.

This is a seated event.

Seated shows
We have three main seated layouts for shows;

floor seating with or without cabaret tables on floor level only [up to 100 capacity], or
seating rake only [up to 119 capacity], or
both seating rake with floor seating in front (in rows, or with or without cabaret tables) [up to 200 capacity].

Every seat on floor level and the first row on our seating rake is accessible to those who require a wheelchair space, an ambulant seat, or those who don’t have any access requirements. Thus, they will be bookable under the same ticket type and unreserved. When buying your tickets, we ask you to declare if you have any access requirements at the checkout so we can reserve any seats or space for those who need them.

Seating rake-only events

These events tend to be theatre or dance performances performed on floor level or film screenings. The front row of our seating rake can be made into wheelchair spaces (up to 2) or ambulant seats (up to 4).

Companion tickets

Family shows will have space for floor seating in front of the seating rake for little ones to get closer to the action.

These are available for all events. They are limited to one per ticket order and can be booked by emailing info@gosforthcivictheatre.co.uk and quoting the event name, booking reference on your ticket order and information you’re comfortable sharing on why a companion ticket is required.
