Ever imagine speaking to a tree?
Step into a world where you can hear the thoughts of an ancient tree. Me & The Forest is the first in a trilogy that invites you to connect with nature like never before. Using a massive puppet and immersive audio, this interactive experience lets you converse with the wonders of the natural world. Guided by wireless headphones and surrounded by fellow explorers, audiences are invited to reflect, wonder, and deepen their connection to the planet, and to one another. World Premiere.
