Person Birds

 

These are no ordinary birds and this is no ordinary bird show, these are The Person Birds.... 

PERSON BIRDS is a hilarious new street theatre piece by Maison Foo commissioned by Derby Festé.

Inspired by the traditions of bird display shows fused with the madness of live science experiments. This hilarious new street theatre walkabout sees Maison Foo raise their bar of ridiculousness even higher with surreal and comical life size birds with a Foo twist, they are half bird, half human! Renowned for their mischievous nature, curious hobbies, silly walks and their ability to run a mock of ‘The Professor” their scientific trainer.

Sitting somewhere between walkabout and static the piece roams around, finding it’s audience and then settles to present static moments for that group whether it be an audience of 1 or 151! Drawing on Maison Foo’s passion for clowning, physical theatre and visual surreality, this piece is very funny, very silly and very accessible to families of all ages and backgrounds.
