Earlybird

Earlybird is a solid indie drama with a lot of heart that explores incredibly relatable themes like when to take risks and the best ways to support those you love.

It’s a wry, big-hearted comedy that celebrates the can-do, let’s-put-on-a-show spirit of local theater companies. But what if you put on a show and nobody comes?

An endearing oddity.

With a better script, “Earlybird” might have been a standout indie film. Instead, while it has some moments where the cast gets to shine, it falls short of its modest ambitions.
