We find out more about Sunderland’s premier stand-up comedy night Stand Up And Mackem Laugh; delve into the murky world of urban art with Tower Art Gallery and find out more about new gallery/bar/studio space B & D Studios; encourage you to head north to the Berwick Film Festival and look into the Girl Gang Season of films at the Star & Shadow; Stockton’s ARC programme a new season of National Theatre Screenings and The Lady Boys Of Bangkok are back to entertain us this autumn; while imaginative milliner The Libertarian stuns us with their designs.

Newcastle’s foremost commercial gallery This Biscuit Factory celebrate their 10^th anniversary, and we find out why it deserves to be on your radar; and we go behind the scenes at Split Festival to see how it’s all put together for your delectation.

Add to all this a host of news and previews featuring Piney Gir, Euros Child, Divorce, Ghostpoet, Jam Up Twist, Africa Express, Stuart Moxham, Meg Baird and Mr Drayton, plus the usual reviews and opinions.
