Tired of the constraints of laws, taxes and other evils, Athenian citiâ€" zen Pistheterrus sets out in search of the King of the Birds in an effort to uncover life‘s true freedoms as experienced only through the soaring independence enjoyed by birds. Following in the footsteps of last year‘s triumphant interpretation of William Shakespeare‘s Twelfth Night, Theatre Sheridan‘s Studio Theatre presents the lively musical comedy adaptation of Aristophanes‘ classic play, The Birds. Updated with an original score, The Birds offers a comedic look at the absurdities Pistheterrus must endure in his new role as a member of the Bird Kingdom and the lifeâ€"fulfilling realizations that guide his journey to selfâ€"discovery. The Birds runs from April 21st to 30th. Ticket prices range from $8 to $13 with regular discounts applying. Seating for the Studio Theatre is general admission with all evening performances beginninr‘g at 7:30 p.m. For tickets or further information, contact the box office at 815â€"4049. Artist Alison Garnett opens OCA show Sat. April 9th Oakville‘s Alison Garnett will be one of four artists exhibiting in Surface Tension, an exhibit at Gallery 76 which opened yesterday and runs to April 9th. Garnett‘s charcoal drawings and embroidered works seek "to reveal what is kept hidden beneath the human surface: depression, pain, obsesâ€" sion, humiliation etc." Fabric, canvas and paper operate as the "metaphor for our defenses." Included among Garnett‘s installations will be a dress embroidered with text which “embodxes the tragedies, conflicts and dilemmas of those who are closest to me." Gallery 76 is located in the Ontario College of Art 76 McCaul St. For more information, call 977â€"8530. ‘The Birds‘ is coming to Sheridan 1225 TRAFALGAR ROAD + OAKVILLE, ONTARIO + L6H 2L1 The Schedule for spring cleanâ€"up is as follows: A special spring cleanâ€"up of various (household junk) will be provided by the Town of Oakville.
