In Collab With

We partnered with the Bush Theatre, organising a community football match with London-based women's football team Inter Melanin FC to promote the award-winning Black British play Red Pitch which focuses on football, diversity and community.

From social media marketing, community experience design and film production, Nourishment helped Bush Theatre & Red Pitch reach and engage with the community the play was designed for in a unique and successfully received way.

From the 15th to 17th of September, the creative experience included a group theatre trip, a Q&A with producers & cast, a beginner friendly football training session, and a friendly women's football match between Nourishment community members and Inter Melanin FC, a football team for women & non-binary POC.
