Birds Conference

Elnaz Sheshgelani’s play “The Birds Conference” premiered as part of La Mama Theatre’s Explorations series for a brief run of three nights in November 2014. For one night only at Conduit Arts, Sheshgelani is rejoined by Clinton Green & Shani Mohini-Holmes to revive their creative partnership in the world of the birds, presenting several episodes of the play in an intimate setting, with lighting design by Simon Fisher.

Opening proceedings on the night will be:

– Shani Mohini-Holmes/Adrian Sherriff duo

– Clinton Green (solo)

Friday 22 May, 2015 – 8pm

The full production of the play will return to La Mama for a longer season later in 2015.

“My consideration to employ these activities [domestic tasks] into the Current event comes from acknowledging interest in the social outskirts of performances, the art that lays within the activities, pleasure, and to serve as respite from a long duration of personal interactions and concentration on generation and creativity.” – Jenny Barnes, guest curator.

A special event for several reasons:

  • It’s our first performance since Chun-liang and I named our partnership 默契 (Moe Chee)
  • It’s our first performance together for 2015 (besides THIS Ensemble shenanigans)
  • It’s our first performance together where we have had PERMISSION to perform!
