A ‘Podwalk’ for Football Stadiums, UK

2017

From the pitch to the changing rooms, from the kit room to the tunnel, join us on a unique exploration of Sixfields Stadium, to view the passionate world of football through the eyes of three generations of Northampton Town Football Club fans. Weaving together virtual and real worlds in front of your eyes, The Twelfth Player cleverly blends filmed and live performance.

Following the sell-out success of our Cultural Olympiad production Like a Fish Out of Water we invite you to view this new instalment of our immersive Podwalk performances.

Presented through a unique collaboration between Fermynwoods Contemporary Art, Royal & Derngate Theatre and Northampton Town Football Club and funded by Arts Council England.

Amazing visuals and atmosphere - taking me into places always wanted to go. Fascinating history of women’s football. Well done to all the dancers, actors and directors.
