The Cagebirds

Presented by Crossfyre Players and Ipswich Civic Centre

 

VENUE – Fire Station 101, 101 Limestone Street, Ipswich

 

The Cagebirds – in this extraordinary play, a room and a cage, and people and captive birds, all become confused until a dramatic climax in which we suddenly see reality.

Six women live in a locked room, each absorbed in her own petty interest and in placating the Mistress who takes care of them.

Then a Wild One is thrust in among them. She talks of breaking out of the room to find freedom.

She troubles the others, until they all join against her in the shattering conclusion to this unforgettable play that offers eight actresses an opportunity to develop strong characters and work in a powerful team.

The Cagebirds, by renowned English playwright David Campton, is a one act play in the Absurdist style being performed by local actors, under the direction of Suzanne Matulich, for the first time in the Ipswich region.

See it in a non-traditional space, made more impactful by its unique surroundings.
