In a big celebration of queerness and football, past and present, November Theatre are running a series of creative, laid back, flag and banner making workshops across the UK. 

Our workshops are running alongside the development of our show PITCH, a devised, documentary show about Football and the LGBTQIA+ community. We are so thrilled to be joined by the amazing We Are Here, the queer owned, Margate based coffee roastery who sponsored the kits in our show, bringing us coffee and joy all morning! 

The relationship between football and queerness is complex and compelling - for some it’s euphoric, for some it's dysphoric, and cultural differences between the men’s, women’s and grassroots game are vast and jarring. Pitch will dig under the surface of the world’s most popular sport and celebrate football in an arena it’s only tentatively being allowed to occupy: a queer one.

Exploring an object that has cultural history in both football and queer communities, our 2 hour workshop will delve into the history of the pride flag, share some stories from political footie history and give you the opportunity to make your own banner and record your own experiences in a safe and joyful environment. 

This is an all abilities workshop, our workshop spaces are relaxed, and participation is always free. You can contact us for an in detail access pack that contains more information about what to expect about our venues and the workshop itself.
