Cloudcuckooland

The birds are revolting and it looks like its guano all round!

Swift and her boyfriend are sitting enjoying chicken and chips when two twitchers pounce through her window looking for a special bird. The bird hiding in Swifts rubbish bin tells them of a meeting of all the birds including the master of all The Great Dodo!

At this meeting the birds decide to build a city in the clouds "Cloud Cuckoo Land" to get away from pollution and mans destruction of the world. To get their message over they cover all the humans towns, factories, railways and other causes of pollution with bird poo.

This cleverly written romp sees all the cast members singing, dancing, doing acrobatics, playing numerous musical instruments and dressing up as birds. It gets over some very important environmental issues in a fun way. The actors are all superb and genuinely seem to be enjoying what they are doing and this enthusiasm is effective. See it if you can catch the bug but don’t get pood on.
