Stupid Fucking Bird

Stupid Fucking Bird, Presented by Impact Theatre Collective

THREE WEEKENDS, ONE GREAT SHOW
Join Impact Theatre for a three-weekend presentation of Stupid Fucking Bird by Aaron Posner.

Stupid Fucking Bird is an “adaptation” of Chekhov’s The Seagull. Fueled with yearning, angst, and meta-theatrical fits of passion, the show follows the story of a small family of successful artists, all dying for something that they don’t have, the one thing that might finally fix them. Can they get the acclaim, the chance, or the love that they would die for? Are they willing to change in order to get it? If they get it, will it finally be enough?

Directed by Ethan Pierce & Aspen McCart
