Cuckoo Birds is a kaleidoscopic collision of personal and collective stories, connected and disconnected characters, real and imagined events all played out within a plastic container, sealed for protection. Boldly encountering things violent, random and absurd, Cuckoo Birds becomes a wild contemporary epic in search of serenity in our often mad and brutal modern world.
This bold new work marks an exciting collaboration with leading Malaysian arts collective Five Arts Centre and Singapore’s Cake Theatrical Productions. Fusing the artistic vocabularies and philosophies of both companies, Cuckoo Birds is a celebration of artistic energies that defies borders.
