Stupid F***ing Bird
About this Event
Stupid F***ing Bird is Aaron Posner’s somewhat unhinged adaptation of Anton Chekov’s Seagull. This interpretation utilizes the immersive aspects of the show with in-the-round seating; do not expect to find much of a fourth wall in this production. This performance holds a focus on the emotional weight associated with love, lust, heartache, heartbreak, and the damages and difficulties associated with parenting.
It follows the story of Conrad, a tortured artist and playwright desperately in love with Nina, his muse and first sweetheart. It takes place at the estate of his mother, Emma, an actress, former star, and egoist. Problems arise when Trigorin, an established writer and Emma’s lover, intercedes in the already tumultuous community dynamics prevalent. This draws to the surface misaligned romances, bitter betrayals, and intense manifestations and expressions of the rich emotional life always simmering under the surface.
