    588 Sutter Street #318 San Francisco, CA 94102 415.677.9596 fax 415.677.9597 www.sfplayhouse.org Press Release For immediate release February 2015 Press Inquires Contact: Anne Abrams [email protected] Regional Premiere STUPID FUCKING BIRD By Aaron Posner Directed by Susi Damilano March 17th to May 2nd opens March 21, 2015 Tues, Wed, Thurs 7pm / Fri, Sat 8pm / Sat 3pm, Sun 2pm No matinee March 21st or 22nd Previews at 8pm March 17, 18, 19, 20 Press Opening: 8 pm, Saturday, March 21, 2015 San Francisco, CA (February 2015) – San Francisco Playhouse (Bill English, Artistic Director; Susi Damilano, Producing Director) continues its twelfth season with the regional premiere of Aaron Posner’s Stupid Fucking Bird—irreverently based on Anton Chekov’s The Seagull—directed by Susi Damilano. You’ve never seen Chekhov like this. Aaron Posner’s bold and cheeky update of “The Seagull” thrusts us into a country house where unrequited desire is drowned in equal parts alcohol and sarcasm. In true Chekhovian fashion, actresses, playwrights, doctors, and novelists bare their souls as they search desperately for the truth of love and art. An aspiring young theatre director struggles to get out from under the shadow of his mother, a famous actress. Meanwhile, his young muse falls for his mother’s lover, and everyone discovers just how disappointing love, art, and growing up can be. In this contemporary riff on Chekhov’s The Seagull, Aaron Posner skillfully remixes the renowned “subtext” of the classic play into exuberant and hysterical scenes and songs. "Stupid Fucking Bird, like The Seagull, is mostly about love, art, hope, and disappointment,” said playwright Aaron Posner.
