Stupid F**king Bird

Arden Theatre
40 N. 2nd Street Philadelphia

Award-winning writer-director Aaron Posner's irreverent, contemporary and very funny remix of Anton Chekhov's The Seagull flies into Philadelphia. Stupid F**king Bird follows a famous actress whose son, an aspiring theater director, wants to make a name for himself on his own. But when his muse, the lovely Nina, falls for his mother's lover, all kinds of romantic and artistic disappointments ensue. Posner turns the original play's famous subtext into scenes and songs, calling Stupid F**king Bird "a rough-and-tumble meta-theatrical mash-up" or a "sort of" adaptation. Witness this heady and hilarious mix of ambition, booze and sex at Arden Theatre.
