Books by The Paper Birds

The Paper Birds was co-founded in 2003 by Bretton Hall graduates Jemma McDonnell and Kylie Perry. For the past 16 years they have been listening to, working with and drawing from the communities around them to create devised, verbatim theatre. Previous shows have included Thirsty, In a Thousand Pieces, Broke and Mobile. The company has won a number of awards including a Fringe First, Title Pending and Best of Prague Fringe. They have been shortlisted for awards including Amnesty International's Freedom of Expression Award, Total Theatre and The Stage Best Ensemble. The Paper Birds have partnered with Live Theatre, National Theatre Studio, The Roundhouse, The Junction and Battersea Arts Centre amongst others, to create bold, engaging political theatre.
