Birdmen features three gigantic, stilt-walking puppets resembling birds from prehistoric times as they roam amongst spectators, capturing imaginations and delighting everyone with their antics. Their illuminated bodies react to their environment as they move in a synchronized mission through the crowd. Funded in The Netherlands in 1991 by Hesther Melief and Tonny Aerts, Close-Act Theatre specializes in large-scale, interactive performances.
