SYNOPSIS
First performed in Kuala Lumpur in 2009 as part of leading Malaysian arts collective Five Arts Centre's 25th Anniversary Celebrations, 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 extra protection! Boldly encountering things violent, random and absurd, Cuckoo Birds is a contemporary theatrical experiment exploring the search for serenity in our often mad and brutal modern world.
Marking an exciting collaboration with Five Arts Centre and Singapore's Cake Theatrical Productions, Cuckoo Birds fuses the artistic vocabularies and philosophies of both companies, in a celebration of artistic energies that defies borders.
