The Cagebirds

By David Campton

Directed by Directors' Name

Introduction

This classic oneact offering by playwright David Campton captures, in one extraordinary moment in time, the surreal existence of seven ladies The Cagebirds- Kept in a secure and controlled environment by The Mistress the already fragile lifestyle of the birds is interrupted and threatened by the introduction into their midst of The Wild One.

The destiny of The Wild One rests not only in the hands of The Mistress, but with the six existing cohabiting birds: The Regular Thump, The LongTongued Gossip, The Great Guzzler, The Constant Twitting, The MirrorEyed Gazer and The Medicated Gloom. Frustration, anger, sadness and much humour weave through this play leading, ultimately, to an inevitable but unexpected outcome.
