Who do you care about and why?
Feel Me is a new interactive theatre show from The Paper Birds, UK leaders in devised verbatim theatre. Feel Me asks, via your mobile phone, who and what you care about from the stories unfolding live on stage in front of you.
Through a stunning mixture of live performance, film, projection, dance and music, Feel Me explores the different lenses through which we are told, and connect to stories in the modern digital world.
An interrogation of empathy, Feel Me asks what makes us ‘feel’ for another person, as we journey through landscapes and across borders, through weather storms and paperwork, changing seasons, endless queues and interviews.
School Groups -ALL GROUP BOOKINGS to see the show will receive a FREE Education Pack including VIDEO of the full-length production! The Paper Birds also have a brand new workshop to accompany the show, which you can book on our website. https://thepaperbirds.com/feel-me/
Mobile phones are integral and used throughout the show to interact with the performers, making decisions about what is important to us from the stories that unfold on the stage. Please ensure that your students bring theirs along to witness the whole experience. You can download the Feel Me Student Resource Pack for your class from our website.
CONTENT WARNING: Please note this performance contains scenes, images and interactive questions relating to the refugee experience that some people may find upsetting. The show contains mild strobing in the projections, loud noises and atmospheric haze.
