The allegedly haunted Sunderland Empire has long been a prime entertainment destination in North East UK. The largest venue between Edinburgh and Manchester, Sunderland Empire was redeveloped in 2004 to cater to large-scale productions travelling from the West End. A new expanding stage and a higher fly tower allow the Sunderland Empire to host many touring musicals. Since Sunderland Empire's reopening audiences have been able to catch productions of the rock-sensation We Will Rock You and perennial classic West Side Story.
