The Birds, Only The Birds Can See at Barons Court.

XO Theatre presents The Birds, Only The Birds Can See, written by Xenia Orphanides, is at the Barons Court Theatre, in west London from 10 Jan 2012 - 22 Jan 2012.

Two stories which gradually intertwine with each other to become one. The first story concerns Lily, who unexpectedly finds herself in a poetry class, where she discovers echoes of the past and bells of truth that resonate to the heart. The second story is a disturbing one, as Lily's past life is revealed. She wants to be a dancer but falls into the hands of a stranger, who beats her up and forces her to give her services to men. There seems no escape...unless it is into the world of drugs.

These productions feature physical theatre and specially composed songs.
