Berkeley Rep's the aves' provides a groundbreaking theatrical escape
Briefly

The aves is a unique theatrical production at Berkeley Repertory Theatre that invites audiences into a serene and contemplative space amid a noisy world. Featuring an elderly couple conversing on a park bench, the play explores themes of age, memory, and the human experience. Written by Jiehae Park and directed by Knud Adams, the production combines elements of meditation and art installation. Park drew inspiration from observing a man on a park bench while living near Central Park, emphasizing the tranquility found in nature and the continuity amidst chaos.
"The aves, through June 8, offers an immersive experience that explores age, memory, and the human experience, all while providing an escape from everyday chaos."
"Jiehae Park, the playwright, drew inspiration from observing the seasons change from her apartment, where a man sat on a park bench every morning."
