Stupid F*cking Bird

By Aaron Posner

A wild meta adaptation of Anton Chekov’s The Seagull with music, audience interaction, and that wonderful 19th Century Russian drama sadness…

Wait a minute.

Doesn’t T4tP produce NEW plays? This play has been produced many times before 2023. What’s going on here?

Okay…Theatre 4the People is all about making new plays happen, yes, but we’re also all about community. When Big Red Hair productions came to us and asked for help making their production of Stupid F*cking Bird happen…we said YES. We loved the people making this show, we love this play, and we love a challenge.

So we did it. We gathered a group of actor/musicians, hired Anna Stefanic to help us arrange and expand the music, and we had a wonderful time doing this show.
