MAN COVETS BIRD
By Finegan Kruckemeyer
Director/Original Concept by Andy Packer
Recommended for ages 10+
"***** Brilliant feel-good family theatre with a depth that speaks to any generation." Sunday Mail
A boy wakes to find he has grown up. He recognises the stranger in the mirror, but his parents and his town do not. Outside his childhood bedroom he finds a bird that cannot fly and together they embark on adventures. Man Covets Bird is a life-affirming, coming of age journey about flying from nests, birdsong and the nature of man and wild things.
This wildly inventive production incorporates animation, live music and prose to tell a tale that blends equal measures of melancholia and sunshine. Receiving unanimous critical and audience acclaim at the 2010 Adelaide Festival premiere, Man Covets Bird won the 2010 RUBY Award for Best New Work.
