During the summer of 2021, theatre company, November Club launched Walk in Your Shoes, an initiative set up after lockdown to re-engage with audiences.

November Club walked over 126 miles of St Oswald’s Way across beautiful Northumberland, from Hexham in the west to Spittal in the north. The incentive was a new way to connect with audiences after Covid-19 and introduce theatre safely in gardens and outdoor spaces with ‘Doorstep Theatre’ presented at Hexham, Great Whittington, Thropton, Felton, Amble, Longhoughton, Lowick and Spittal.

The walk proved so popular that November Club brought the initiative back in 2022, 2023 and 2024. Each year the company chooses a different route in Northumberland and audiences are invited to walk, chat and meet new people.
