Feel Me

Feel Me asks, via your mobile phone, who and what you care about from the stories unfolding live on stage in front of you.
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.
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. 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.
Feel Me seeks real-world impact and action: as active participants within the show, audiences are gently and anonymously asked to share how they feel about the story they are witnessing at different moments and to consider who they connect with, who they feel empathy for and why. This is measured using innovative software accessed by the audience during the show in a series of collaborative ‘check-in’ moments, with results creatively shared live as part of the performance. Supported by academics from Essex University, we’re bringing together a study of the impact of the show on our audiences and their empathy levels.

Made in partnership with Theatre Centre.
A co-production with New Wolsey Theatre.
Supported by Padepokan Seni Bagong Kussudiardja (Indonesia) and The Point Eastleigh.

Schools
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.
