About this Event
Every goal, every assist, every clean sheet, it’s theirs.
Hot off the back of its award-winning, offie-nominated Edinburgh Fringe run, November Theatre brings you PITCH.
Devised from conversations with hundreds of LGBTQIA+ players, fans and professionals across the UK, PITCH helps us imagine a future in which queer presence in the beautiful game is more than just a debate over a rainbow armband. Expect a hat-trick of true stories, dirty tactics and dancing!
This opening performance will also be followed by a special PITCH Q&A session, discussing the themes of the play with creatives, footballers and activists within the game.
Doors open at 7pm. Please note that PITCH contains swearing, sexual references, homophobic language and reference to homophobic actions.
