How Do I Find the Words? A new headphone verbatim community performance created by KLS & Associates in collaboration with Bolton Octagon, Bristol Old Vic, and Nottingham Playhouse. Built from the voices of people in our communities through real-life interviews, How Do I Find the Words? celebrates the stories behind the words that shape who we are - the words that help, heal, hurt, and hold meaning. Join us to hear real voices and real stories from our community, shared through an intimate headphone experience.

From over 30 recorded interviews gathered by participants in three groups across the country, a performance is created to platform often unheard stories and experiences. 

Working with a trained facilitator, over the last 10 weeks the participants have learnt techniques used in creating verbatim theatre. The script has been created from the precise words spoken by people in real-life interviews about specific events and topics.
