How do you get people to accept you,
if you can't even get them to believe you?

That is the question that teenager Danny must ask now that he has begun to come to terms with being something other than 'normal'.

WIth only the constant chorus of the birds singing in the trees to comfort him he does his best, with both humorous and disturbing consequences, to convince those around him that he really is something completely unique; a blip in evolution which should be celebrated, and not a deranged fantasist, or worse a total freak.

Birdsong, was orignally produced by Jersey Arts Trust as part of the New Plays Project run in association with The Old Vic New Voices.

The gala performance was on Saturday 24th July 2010 at the Benjamin Meaker Theatre at the Jersey Arts Centre.
