It’s finally here (touch wood). Flood Theater’s Touch makes its long-awaited Unity premiere this January following two postponements due to the pandemic.
There’s something very lovely about holding someone, their soul, their body warmth. I think it’s tribal…you just have this- I don’t know, a sense of home, I guess? It’s connection, isn’t it? I mean, it’s strange…We’re extensively connected to people all the time through technology, but it’s all fake. Really I think we’re probably more lonely than ever.
Touch is a piece of verbatim theater created by Flood Theatre through a series of interviews on connection and belonging with young people in Liverpool. Following the pursuit of connection, Touch looks at the ways we find love, create intimacy, experience loneliness, and ultimately find our home.
