Door-to-Door Poetry: Nationwide – Durham Gala Theatre 

Meet Rowan McCabe – the world’s first Door-to-Door Poet. Rowan knocks on random people’s door and writes free poems for them on any subject of their choosing.

In this show, Rowan brings his flair for the spoken word and combines it with theatre, producing a funny and thought-provoking performance about trust, class and community.

He reveals what happened during his final outing as a Door-to-Door Poet before the pandemic and asks what lessons we’ve learned since then.
