As an original member of the Sex Pistols, Glen Matlock needs no introduction. During his time as bassist with the band, Glen wrote one of the most famous punk songs ever, “Pretty Vacant”, and co-wrote the majority of the Sex Pistols “Nevermind the Bollocks…” classics including “God Save the Queen” and “Anarchy in the U.K.”.
After leaving the Pistols, Glen formed Rich Kids along with Midge Ure, Rusty Egan and Steve New, releasing one album “Ghosts of Princes in Towers” before splitting. In the 1980s Glen worked with Iggy Pop before releasing an album on Creation Records, “Who’s He Think He Is When He’s At Home”, in 1996.
His latest album “Good To Go” features Slim Jim Phantom of The Stray Cats, Chris Spedding, Neal X & Earl Slick.
This is a standing event.
Standing shows
Our standing capacity is up to 300. Our seating rake folds away on the rear wall of the Theatre, opening up the floor for the audience to stand in and take in the performance on stage. At the front of the room, in front of the stage, is a cordoned-off area for wheelchair spaces and ambulant seating for those who need it.
There are a maximum of four ambulant seats and three wheelchair spaces in this area at a standing event. Tickets for these spaces will be a separate ticket type from general admission and should be visible when buying tickets. Each of these seats or spaces will come with one extra chair for another valid ticket holder (general admission or companion/PA) who may be accompanying the wheelchair space/ambulant ticket buyer to the event.
Carer/PA/Essential companion tickets
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.
