Feathers is an emotional journey raising awareness of how we connect with our senses, ourselves, and others. Experiences of the Blind & Visually people are playfully and sensitively revealed throughout the show.
Performed by both professional dancers without disability and Visually Impaired community participants, this dance theatre show appeals to audiences’ sense of kinship and capacity for empathy and connection.
