Project Description

Support the World Premiere production of

Sweet Bird andsoforth 
by Laura Naumann, in a new translation by Benjamin Winspear.

Amanda is going away.

Her friends have gathered at their usual haunt, high on the hill at the very edge of town, to throw a farewell party. But is it really that easy to leave everything you’ve ever known?

Sweet Bird andsoforth heralds a new voice in international playwriting. Laura Naumann’s unexpected, original and unmistakably theatrical play combines a Chekhovian landscape with the shifting dreams, memories and fantasies of six young people caught between adolescence and adulthood. Surprisingly humorous, irreverent and occasionally anarchic, Sweet Bird andsoforth is an exhilarating descent into the vagaries of youth.

Presented as part of ATYP's Under The Wharf season from 17 August-10 September
