Sybilla Kellaway's volatile marriage to unfaithful David is ending. She has flown the marital nest and taken refuge in a summer-house at Silversands, a remote coastal promontory. Sibylla's flight has bitterly divided friends and family and opened old wounds. Anna, a young birder, is also at Silversands. Binoculars and notebook in hand, she secretly records all she sees - the nesting terns and rare waders...and the glamorous, defiant Sibylla. Darkly comic and provocative, Girl Watching charts a young woman's transformation - from silent observer to vocal witness - told through the language and rituals of bird-watching. Girl, Watching was commissioned by the Birmingham Repertory Theatre. It opens on 30th January 2003 at The Astor Theatre, Deal in Kent, following a month-long residency on the south coast, including work with the Sandwich Bay Bird Observatory. It later transfers to the Birmingham Rep.
