A profound experience

“This production of Wajdi Mouawad’s latest epic tragedy offers a profound experience of feeling and thought. Watching it I felt intrigue, tension, shock, release, horror and elation, and came out the other side simultaneously exhausted and buzzing.

If you’ve never seen one of Mouawad’s plays and if you are interested in a production that dares to go places, culturally and formally, rarely seen in English-speaking theatre, then I suggest you jump at the opportunity to see Birds of a Kind — but please be warned that there is much in it that has the potential to be devastating.”
