Maldon students are set to connect with an Indonesian audience in a live show, exploring empathy through interactive storytelling and technology
Maldon: Exciting news for students at Plume Academy! They’re about to join a live show called ‘Feel ME’ that connects them with an audience in Indonesia. How cool is that?
This interactive performance dives into empathy using modern tech. It’s not just a show; it’s a chance for students to share their feelings and thoughts in real-time.
‘Feel ME’ combines dance, film, and live performance to tell stories. The audience gets to engage with the narrative and connect with the characters in a unique way.
Students will use their phones to express how they feel during the show. They’ll also join a discussion afterward, chatting with their peers across the globe.
A spokesperson from Plume Academy shared their excitement about this project. They see it as a great way to teach students about responsible tech use while learning about empathy.
It’s a fantastic example of how technology can enhance learning and create a collaborative environment. Plus, it’s a fun way to connect with others, even from 7,000 miles away!
The Paper Birds, the theatre company behind this project, has been working on it for four years. They’ve teamed up with an Indonesian arts venue to make this happen.
Jemma McDonnell, one of the directors, expressed how special this event is. It’s a celebration of their hard work and a chance to connect with young artists from both countries.
