Your brain fires off around 48 thoughts per minute*, that’s 70,000 a day. The Paper Birds, UK leaders in devised verbatim theatre, return with their most inventive, laugh-out-loud show yet.

Set over 3 minutes, as one woman awaits some potentially life-changing news, this fast-paced, chaotic and warmly relatable story explores our relationship with ourselves.

Co-created with comedian Jessica Fostekew, blending sharp writing with real stories, belly laughs and gut-punches at breakneck speed, 48 Thoughts asks how we navigate the world, and the most important relationship we have, the one with ourselves.
