It was a true joy to see this play on stage. Such brilliant humor and such heart weave together to make a brilliant concept a raucous, affecting, and stunningly entertaining play. David Templeton has created a work that is as exhilarating for the audience as it is likely exhausting for the actor playing Featherbaby. The role is a gift (and a stretch) for any actor. I expect the play will be part of seasons all over the country soon. Kudos!

David Templeton once again proves himself a master of language and imagination. Featherbaby is a whirlwind of joy, conflict and hard truths from the exuberant, territorial and hilarious Amazon parrot known as Featherbaby. A tour-de-force role for an actor with charisma and energy, Featherbaby will soon be on every actor's bucket-list. This show had dual world premieres on the east and west coast, and was an unqualified hit across the country. Audiences loved it. A highly recommended read.

What a joy this script is! Joyful theatricality and physical comedy in the work and play with the audience. What it really is is a beautiful holder of time to observe aging and death, loneliness, usefulness...hobbies? What is pointless? What has a point? Would love to see this onstage.
