Written by Laura Maria Censabella, the play is inspired by Irene Pepperberg, who taught an African grey parrot named Alex to communicate and solve problems for more than 30 years. Theater critic Jacquinn Sinclair says the journey is "smartly captured" onstage.
Alex has the kind of qualities you look for in a protagonist. He’s emotionally complex, with a vivid and outsized personality that charges up the atmosphere whenever he’s on the scene. He’s also a parrot.
Events will take place Monday through Thursday and take place in the Science and Engineering Innovation and Research Building, Central Library and Life Sciences Building.
