Gerry and Sewell

​Who gets to decide where, or what, ‘home’ is? For many, it’s a place: the town or city you were born in; the destination you’ve always felt drawn to, regardless of the reason; or maybe it’s a building, somewhere you feel your safest. It’s to no one's surprise that when you ask a Geordie where their home is, they will give you one of two answers: “The Toon” or “St James’ Park”. Gerry & Sewell reminds people how important going ‘home’ really is. ​ ​

Becky Clayburn is an actor who truly represents what the North-East of England has to offer. With a natural talent for performing and a personality that will make you think of home, Clayburn puts the ‘Northern’ into ‘Northern Soul’. Before reprising her role as Tyneside in Jamie Eastlake’s production of Gerry and Sewell, making its West End debut after dominating the North-East theatre scene, BroadwayWorld sat down with her to talk about all things ‘Gerry and Sewell’, the region we both grew up in, and how important returning to your hometown is.
