The Paper Traveller

Marie Klimis presents a new immersive site-specific show exploring library spaces through pop-up books, miniature sets, sound installations and intimate theatre performances.

What if books could talk? Part-treasure hunt, part-immersive theatre, The Paper Traveller is a storytelling journey across London libraries exploring the imaginary worlds concealed inside books. Through pop-up books, miniature papercut sets, sound installations and live theatre performances, this intimate show takes visitors on an adventure through books and explores what happens if you get lost in one.

This experience is for one audience member at a time: visitors are equipped with headphones and travel across library spaces, meeting weird and wonderful characters on the way. But beware, book travelling is not for the faint-hearted and only the brave will survive the journey.

Performances last 45 minutes and two audience members can start the experience every 10 minutes.
