About the Show
Conor McPherson's 2009 stage adaptation of Daphne du Maurier's short story. Strangers Nat and Diane take refuge in an isolated house on the coast as massive flocks of birds begin attacking everything in their path. When a young woman with secrets of her own arrives at the door, the fragile sanctuary they've built starts to fracture, and paranoia takes hold alongside the threat outside. A taut four-character thriller about how people behave when the rules of the world stop holding.

Mike Wood's lighting is plenty eerie, and scenic designers Vandy Wood's two-story house with its forbidding staircase and slatted blinds works perfectly.
