A loud, live love song to not having it all figured out.
The Paper Birds asked young people, living in today’s world of mobile phones and Google, to write to them and ask them anything. Nothing was off limits. They received over 100 letters from across the UK. This show is their reply.
Ask Me Anything is an immersive theatrical experience set in their 90s and 00s teenage bedrooms. Featuring original live music and cutting edge digital artistry, it explores what different generations can learn from each other.
This is a show for teenagers, parents, grandparents, and everyone in between, who, like us, are still figuring it all out. So, take off your shoes, pull up a cushion, and come on in.
Ask Me Anything is an immersive show set in teenagers’ bedrooms where the audience sit up close to the action. Upon entry to the auditorium you will be able to choose to sit in either relaxed cushion/beanbag seating or chairs. Seating will be allocated on a first come, first served basis but don’t worry, everyone will be made to feel at home!
