What makes us feel for another person? Following four years of extensive research and development, Paper Birds presents the world première of Feel Me, an interrogation of empathy which actively measures audiences’ engagement with the theme during the show.
Using a mixture of live performance, film, projection, dance and interactive elements, Feel Me explores the different lenses through which we are told and connect to stories we hear and read about. In Feel Me, worlds unfold from backpacks, and tents are constructed and dismantled again, each scene and location temporary, like a transient teenager in search of safety, acceptance and a new place to call home.
