About

Alex is an African Grey parrot. Irene is a researcher at Harvard University. Over the protests of her male colleagues, Irene teaches Alex to meaningfully communicate and solve problems at the level of a five-year-old child. This highly theatrical new work tracks their 30-year research experiment turned love story and captures man's longing to "talk with the animals." Inspired by the true life collaboration of Dr. Irene Pepperberg, and Alex.
