The play centers around Euelpides and Pisthetarus, two aging Athenian men who have grown tired of living a life in war-torn Athens. The men embark on a journey to not only escape their impoverished surroundings, but also to seek out Epops, the king of the birds who rules his land under a reign of peace. “The Birds” tells the tale of the journey that Euelpides and Pisthetarus make together to seek out king Epops in the hopes that they can live the rest of their lives in peace.
