THEATREX produced THE BIRDS by Conor McPherson, from the classic story by Daphne du Maurier, in April 2025.

Set amidst a global crisis in which birds turn on humanity en masse, strangers band together for shelter and protection. As suspicion and paranoia take hold, the lines are blurred between ally and threat.

Daphne du Maurier’s short story, also the basis for Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film, is boldly adapted by McPherson in this gripping and unsettling look at human relationships in the face of societal collapse.

Performances were held at The Hive Collaborative.
