For one day only there will be exclusive discounts with £5 tickets available for shows including Thriller Live, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, the Rocky Horror Show and Dick Whittington.

Fans are queuing back to the Waitrose store and have been since before the booking office opened at 9am.

Even Philip Childs, who will be starring in Priscilla, Queen of the Desert when it comes to the theatre later this month was among those waiting to get their hands on discount tickets.

Mr Childs and Waterside pantomime favourite Andy Collins are among those who have tweeted happy birthday messages to the theatre.

The theatre’s cafe is also offering a birthday bundle, where for every slice of birthday cake bought, customers can receive a complimentary cup of tea or filter coffee.

The £5 tickets are only available on selected performances, dates and price bands when purchased on Monday, October 12 only.

Tickets can be purchased from the theatre box office and are limited to two tickets per show per customer.

Customers must quote Birthday Offer when booking.
