My Dad’s a Birdman

This heartwarming play, based on David Almond's "My Dad's a Birdman," explores themes of belief, love, and the power of imagination. It's a tender story about a self-reliant girl, Lizi, growing up without her mother, and her sad, dream-dwelling father who struggles to care for himself. When Lizi's father decides to become a birdman and compete in a global race, they embark on a journey that helps them grow, accept each other, and discover the magic in everyday life.

Director Agnė Sunklodaitė emphasizes the importance of portraying diverse family structures, offering a relatable narrative for children from single-parent households. The play highlights that a family can be wonderful with just a father or a mother, and that the most crucial element is the bond between loved ones. It's a touching tale that reminds us hope and love can give anyone wings, even the stern Aunt Dorina.
