Griffin Theatre Company: Birdsong of Tomorrow
30 August @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm AEST

The wandering albatross. The buff-breasted paradise kingfisher. The superb fairywren. Every day across this country, birds sing. Songs passed down through generations. Songs of a world that’s gone and a world that’s changing. Birds fill every part of the planet with melody and colour. They soar and swim and run. And a lot of them are chickens.
Nathan Harrison (Hottest 100 of Animals: A Countdown for the Anthropocene) is a professional theatre-maker and an amateur birdwatcher, who has seen roughly 150 varieties in the last year alone. Blending science, storytelling, music and video, Birdsong of Tomorrow is a playful and heartfelt look at our rapidly changing environment— and what birds might sing when we’re gone.
