AWC Performing Arts presents the Marc Acito comedy Birds of a Feather on March 6, 7, 8, and 9 in the AWC Theatre.

AWC Professor of Theatre Ann Wilkinson shared, “Basically, this is a play about love—with and without feathers. Playwright Marc Acito manages to pack a lot of topical LGBT issues into a ninety-minute one act that explores romance, family and bird-brained human behavior.”

Birds of a Feather is a comedy about two bird families—a pair of male penguins at the Central Park Zoo who hatch and adopt a chick, and two hawks living and raising their own brood on a Central Park rooftop. Families of every breed and kind are celebrated in this heart-warming play and its exploration of psychology, zoology, and what it is that truly defines a family. Marc Acito won the 2012 Helen Hayes Award for Best New Play for this unique take on relationships.

Cost for the event is $5 at the door (cash only) or free with an AWC student ID.

Recommended for those at least 14 years of age.
