Cage Birds
Scenic Design
"Cage Birds" is a play written by David Campton, first performed in 1976. The play is set in a room where several women are held captive, each in her own cage. These women are metaphorically represented as birds trapped in cages, with each cage representing societal constraints or personal struggles.
"Cage Birds" explores themes of oppression, conformity, and the desire for freedom. It delves into the psychological effects of confinement and the human instinct to resist and assert individuality. The play offers a poignant commentary on the struggles faced by individuals in oppressive or restrictive environments and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
