making art

Our mission is to create art, art in all shapes and forms, from art exhibitions, film projects, theatre projects and theatre in education.

Accessability

The arts, even in this day and age is still not very accessable to the working classes. This is something we want to change!

networking

The talent available in the North East is vast and we want to get those people together and network, share ideas and work together.

Collaboration

Collaboration is what can make any project a great project. We want to work with other companies to create something special.

Gary Graham

Gary is a North East based actor, writer, producer and director.  Brought up and lived his life on a council estate, he knows first hand how the working classes are kept away from the arts, or thrown the scraps if they are lucky.  This is the motivation behind his startup business ‘Zone Entertainment Ltd’.  Gary gained a degree in Theatre and Performance in his 40’s at Northumbria University.
