Thirsty
We’re constantly hearing about how much we all drink. What’s going on with us and alcohol? Why are we such a boozy, thirsty nation?
Thirsty weaves together real stories, memories and booze-based confessions, collected by The Paper Birds from a ‘drunken hotline’ and an online questionnaire. With live music and stunning physical theatre, these stories tell of lost memories and traumas, bruised knees, uncontrollable laughter and sore heads, particularly focusing on the women waving the flag for 'Booze-Britain'.
Delving beyond statistics, facts and figures Thirsty looks to the faces and the voices of everyone who likes a drink and asks why, as a nation, are we so thirsty?
The Paper Birds first performed Thirsty at the Edinburgh Festival in 2011 to rave reviews and packed theatres.
