Stupid Fucking Bird

An aspiring young director rampages against the art created by his mother’s generation. A nubile young actress wrestles with an aging Hollywood star for the affections of a renowned novelist. And everyone discovers just how disappointing love, art, and growing up can be. In this irreverent, contemporary, and very funny remix of Chekhov’s The Seagull, award-winning playwright Aaron Posner wages a timeless battle between young and old, past and present, in search of the true meaning of it all. Original songs composed by James Sugg to match Aaron Posner's lyrics draw the famously subtextual inner thoughts of Chekhov's characters explicitly to the surface.
