About the play: A modern re-telling of Aristophanes’ classic comic fantasy ‘The Birds’. Two men, frustrated by the modern world, arrive in the fabled land of the birds seeking freedom and a better way of life. Despite their best intentions the men are unable to resist remaking this utopian paradise in their own image, without regard for the inhabitants who already occupy the land.
