Monday 29 October 2018

Birds is set in a fantastical world where 2 men, Peisetairos and Euelpides, convince the world’s birds to create a celestial city, Cloudcuckooland, where birds will rule over both gods and humans. With a darker motive, Peisetairos gradually monopolises power, even turning against his companion, and the birds’ promised free world is shaped into a tyrannical society where rebellious birds are eaten by their leader…
…Wait
That can’t be it. That bird’s feathers are falling off…and is that Prometheus walking around with a parasol? And why is everybody dancing?

The show starts at 7:30pm on the 3rd and 4th November at the St.Age! Tickets can be bought now here.
