The award-winning show from FRINGEPVD 2024 returns as a fundraiser for FRINGEPVD 2025!
Bird Jail: A Musical Punishment (winner of the FRINGEPVD Audience Award for best Musical Performance) was about a bad situationship that Niki had with a birder but now she loves herself more and she's still into birds. So win/win!
Bird Jail: A Musical Punishment was recorded as an album, earlier this year, and soon you can stream it! Bird Jail 2: Bird Bath & Beyond is an album release party, and fundraiser for FRINGEPVD that includes Bird Jail songs and new non-Bird Jail songs because she doesn't know how else to process her feelings other than to write songs about things and slice herself open like a Tauntaun in front of people.
Bring your binoculars!
ABOUT BIRD JAIL: A MUSICAL PUNISHMENT:
In the spirit of Sisyphus and Prometheus, Bird Jail is a musical punishment. A lounge singer, dressed as a Ruby-Throated Hummingbird, must sing of her situationship with a man, disguised as a Shoebill Stork, for eternity. Or until she learns to detach her worth from men and focus on loving herself. Whichever comes first. Until then, she’s trapped in a world of bird references and emotional breadcrumbs. Watch her suffer! And learn something new about birds!
*Winner of the 2024 FRINGEPVD Audience Award for Best Musical Performance*
