We did it when I was in high school, and to this day remains one of my favorite experiences.
We collaborated w the art department to build really cool puppets for the birds, actors all wore black, and we performed on a bare stage, with just a painted drop cloth on the floor, iirc.
Do it, it's a lovely piece!

We did it when I was in college, we performed the show in a aisle setting with bleacher style seating on either side leaving the end zones open, I stage managed the production.

Has anyone produced The Conference of the Birds by Peter Brook and Jean-Claude Carriere? I'm reading it now and it looks intriguing but a bit challenging.
