CONFERENCE OF THE BIRDS

Club Guy & Roni

Musician/composer Sytze Pruiksma and famed trumpet player Eric Vloeimans will be supported by musicians from dozens of marching bands and 20 dancers and actors from Noord Nederlands Toneel and Club Guy & Roni. The production is directed by Guy Weizman. Falk Richter wrote the text for “Conference of the Birds”, which is an adaptation of an epic Persian poem of the same name. Mirjam Stolwijk and Mariana Aparicio Torres will play the lead roles. “Conference of the Birds” is presented by Kening fan ‘e Greide. “Conference of the Birds” is an impressive theatre, dance and musical performance at De Groene Ster recreational area. Surrounded by greenery and water ways at dusk, audience members will be swept away by the story of a group of birds in search of a leader. After a long, adventure-filled journey, the birds realise that they are in charge of their own destiny.
