The Conference of the Birds
March 13, 14, 25-28, 2026
Written by Peter Brook and Jean-Claude Carriere | Based on the poem by Farid ud-Din Attar
Directed by Armina LaManna
A nation of birds is in crisis, and urged on by one of their flock, the Hoopoe, they chart a path to find their king." There are moments of farce and despair as they attempt to cross the seven valleys with their disturbing riddles. Some die, some drop out, while others continue their quest. At last, the survivors come into the presence of the Great One where the secret is discovered—that they, themselves are the embodiment of the divine.
