The Paper Birds - Theatre Company

Hayley — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 12:17:26 +0000

Ice-creams, suitcases, floorboards and buttons tell the physically and visually moving tale of a young Eastern European girl and her journey to England. A beautifully woven patchwork of accounts, misunderstanding, movement, text and live original music; ‘In a Thousand Pieces’ sees The Paper Birds returning to their all female roots to deliver this touching and delicate depiction of the violent, isolated and brutal world home to thousands of women forced into the British sex trade.
