Outlying Islands
4 (2) · Contemporary, Fringe Theatre
1939, Scotland. Two young ornithologists arrive on a remote island.
Overview
They’ve been tasked by the Ministry to conduct a study of the bird population. With only the island’s authoritarian leaseholder and his niece for company, they find themselves drawn to the wildness of the island, igniting growing tensions and repressed passions. Blurring the line between fantasy and reality, Greig’s poetic, funny, and politically charged play explores a society on the edge of immense change.
