Saturday 20th April 5.30pm - 7pm
St Lawrence's Church, Stroud 

It’s shortly after dawn at RAF Fyling dales and a cuckoo is having a transmitter strapped to his back. A few weeks later he will have flown thousands of miles across Europe and over the Sahara Desert to equatorial Africa. 

For millennia, the cuckoo’s call has inspired songs, stories and poems. Does he bring the spring? Tell our fortunes? Was he the shapeshifter that became a hawk? He certainly fools the reed warblers who feed him as a changeling baby. Now the voice of the cuckoo is fading - where has it gone? Father and Son Malcolm and Josh Green bring their exquisite story Gone Cuckoo to Stroud. 

A true story which contemplates the magic and mysteries of the natural world and tugs on a heart-string in a call to protect and care for our wondrous planet. With gorgeous songs and soundscapes intertwined throughout the performance
