LAUNCH PAD opens its 20th season with Strange Birds by E. M. Lewis and directed by Risa Brainin. Set in a remote cabin in the middle of a blizzard, five women reckon with dark forces in this fierce and funny feminist thriller. 

Strange Birds contains references to domestic violence

“This play is really special to me,” says Lewis. “It centers on five strong, smart, resourceful women. It’s set in my home state of Oregon, up in the rough, remote Wallowa Mountains!  And it deals with questions of ethics and morality, and personal and institutional responsibility that feel really important to talk about right now.”

At 70 minutes with no intermission, it is an exciting ride with surprising twists and turns

We hope you’ll join us!
