Notes:

Original Playwright - Aristophanes. http://www.tutato.com/tuta.php?action=birds

Synopsis:

BIRDS was presented in 414 BC. In the previous year, Athens captured an island city, Melia, after a long siege. The Athenians put all the men of military age to death and sold the women and children into slavery. Later that year, the Athenians decided to launch an expedition to Sicily after a vigorous debate. The debate ended with those who opposed the expedition becoming afraid to speak out for fear of being called unpatriotic. The outcome of the expedition in Sicily was still in doubt when Aristophanes wrote BIRDS. It had ended in disaster before he wrote his next extant play, LYSISTRATA.
A Note on the Transposition: Most versions Aristophanes plays which I have read have worked more as literature for reading than as plays for performing. For that reason, I think it's fair to say that someone who works in theater may possess certain advantages in rendering an English-language version of BIRDS which a Greek scholar does not necessarily have simply by virtue of reading Ancient Greek. My job as I see it has been to transpose a play set for an alien theatrical tradition into a new setting, that of our own tradition. Like a musician transposing a piece from one instrument to another, I hope to find a vital new sonority without losing the vigor of the original.

Original Playwright - Aristophanes

In "Birds" Aristophanes turns from the pointed political satire characteristic of earlier plays to a fantasy that soars literally into the air in search of a carefree world. Here the enterprising protagonists create a utopian counter-Athens, called Cloudcuckooland, ruled by birds.

Synopsis:

In a time of terrible economic recession, a bankrupt father decides to send his child to University to study Argument under the great Socrates so that when the debt collectors turn up, they can talk their way out of having to pay their bills after all, everyone knows that if you're skilled in Argument then hey, you can murder your own brother-in-law and get away with it! But no one is prepared for the shocking truths that Socrates and his University are ready to reveal: the world is round! the gods are dead! Fleet Foxes are lame! and rain doesn't come from aliens weeing on us! Songs! Dances! Masks! Banjos! Hula-hoop fights! Intense mental anguish! Angry truth-telling! Topical commentary! Biting satire! 'Free' wine!* The Bacchanals celebrate their 13th birthday with a brand new production of Aristophanes' 423BC comedy The Clouds.

Original Playwright - Aristophanes

Synopsis:

In Aristophanes' 424 B.C. political satire, Demos, who personifies the Athenian public, has come under the spell of his demagogic slave, himself a personification of the playwright's own arch enemy, the politician Cleon. Two other slaves, Nicias and Demosthenes, themselves symbols of the democratic city state, decide to install a vagabond sausage seller off the streets in Cleon's place. They flatter Demos and turn him against Cleon and tell him that the oracles promise a new golden age for Athens. Beneath the satiric surface and the sexual and scatological imagery, Knights is also a more serious attempt to portray what Aristophanes views as the gullible, wrongly if eternally optimistic Athenian people and their need for a moral regeneration.
