Remarkable theatre from our home in Northumberland

About us

Novo Theatre is a theatre company telling original stories in unusual places and spaces.

Our work is bold, inventive and tells the stories of where we are now and where we have been.

We work with communities and partners to enrich our work and support a brilliant network of freelancers in the North East.
