FEATHERBABY To Open Season 26 At Greater Boston Stage Company
The new comedy will run September 12–28 in Stoneham, MA.
Greater Boston Stage Company will launch its 26th season with the riotous new comedy Featherbaby, running September 12–28, 2025. Written by David Templeton and directed by Weylin Symes, the production will be presented as a Co-World Premiere in partnership with the Don Fulton New Works Project.
Paul Melendy stars as the outrageous Featherbaby, a foul-mouthed Amazon parrot whose antics throw his human companions into chaos. Joined by Liv Dumaine and Gabriel Graetz, Melendy leads a comedy that blends sharp humor with unexpected heart, exploring companionship, rivalry, and the surprising ways connection can take flight.
“Featherbaby manages to be both laugh-out-loud funny and deeply touching,” said Director and Producing Artistic Director Weylin Symes. “One moment you are doubled over with laughter, and the next you find yourself reflecting on the ways we connect with each other, even in the most unlikely circumstances.”
