The Blue Bird
Through the journey of two siblings searching for the Blue Bird of Happiness, this fantasy play finds hope and imagination in the everyday world. As a fable, it also turns back on the human impulse to search for happiness itself.
Work Information
A search for happiness slowly changes how the familiar world is seen.
This long-lived play can be read both as a children’s story and as a symbolist drama. Beneath its vivid movement lies the idea that happiness may be found not far away, but in the middle of ordinary life.
