A performance that will make you laugh, touch and think - full of real-life stories and music that sticks.

In his first full-length performance En verbied de vogels om te fluiten, Ayoub tries to give meaning to all the experiences he has gone through so far. Why do swallows build their nests in the mosque? What does a hedgehog have to do with FEBO walls? And can he trust that his mother has the answers? With music as the common thread, Ayoub takes you on a comforting quest for meaning in a performance full of compelling stories about food, illness, and his special bond with his mother.
