November Club is an award-winning performing arts company with a unique approach to storytelling.

November Club is led by creative producer and director Cinzia Hardy, working with a skilled core artistic team including theatre designer and artist Imogen Cloet and singer, composer and musician Katie Doherty. In each project, we work with a group of associate performers, dramaturges, choreographers, musicians and artists - and local people.

Each performance starts with an intense period of research and investigation, listening and talking to people, collating their stories and memories and delving through archives, ensuring that each work is directly connected to that place. We work collaboratively with people, engaging creatively with each space to shape each project. The historical and contemporary themes that emerge become the unique and site-specific performance, which for the audience always goes ‘beyond the show’.
