A new, multi-sensory, asmr-integrated theatre production for audiences with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD).
The Turtle, the Monkey, and the Bird have all lost their home. Men in big, bright, yellow jackets came and chopped down all the trees. Now they’re forced away to fend for themselves, make their own new homes and pick up the pieces of the mess that the humans have left behind. How will the animals cope on their own? What can humans do to make the world better for the animals of the rainforest? And why is the Turtle so clumsy?
Concrete Youth’s new multi-sensory theatre production, The Whispering Jungle, brings together ASMR, sensory play and sensory puppets in an immersive touring production for young audiences with profound and multiple learning disabilities. Come and help the animals of the rainforest rebuild their home and realise that home really is wherever you’re with your family.
When you book a ticket to The Whispering Jungle, you will gain access to Concrete Youth’s free pre and post online sensory stories with a member of Concrete Youth’s team. Join us, via Zoom, on dates before and after your scheduled performance to enjoy a sensory story version of The Whispering Jungle, chat about the show, make some new friends and immerse yourself in the world of The Whispering Jungle!
The Whispering Jungle is supported by Arts Council England, National Lottery Community Fund, Ashley Family Foundation, Back to Ours, Kilpatrick Fraser Charitable Trust, Hull City Council, and Hull Truck Theatre.
