SEASON 8 | 2023–2024

OCT 20 ‒ NOV 4, 2023

MATCH | Midtown Arts & Theater Center Houston

TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW!

RUNTIME: 80 minutes (no intermission)

When a relentless and deadly slew of birds begins attacking humanity, strangers Nat and Diane find themselves trying to survive together in an isolated cabin. Soon after, the young and attractive Julia arrives looking for shelter, bringing with her suspicion and distrust. When the duo becomes a trio, paranoia takes hold revealing an inside threat that rivals that of the murderous birds on the outside. Daphne du Maurier’s 1952 classic short story, and the basis for Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film, is adapted by Conor McPherson and becomes a gripping and unsettling look at human nature in the face of societal collapse.
