Based on the poem by Farid ud-Din Attar; Stage Version by Peter Brook and Jean-Claude Carriere

Conference of the Birds based on the 12th century poem of the same name by Farid ud-Din Attar, offers a profound journey of the human ego and the quest for truth. Through a captivating narrative, it challenges us to reflect on our place in the world. As the birds of the world take flight on a pilgrimage to find their celebrated king, they explore existential questions and their own identities.
