Description

Three Birds by Janice Okoh is a darkly comic drama about childhood, family, and fantasy. When the three siblings are left home alone, they must navigate the challenges of growing up and keeping their secrets safe from the adults who come to visit. As the outside world presses in, they will do anything to maintain their independence. The play, which won the 2011 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting, explores the complexities of sibling relationships and the struggles of adolescence. With its unique blend of humor and drama, Three Birds is a powerful and thought-provoking portrayal of childhood and family life. Janice Okoh's play has been widely acclaimed and has been adapted into a successful television drama, Just Act Normal, for BBC3.
