Strange Bird Productions was founded in 2000. The company's mission was to produce original work and they did so by producing many one-act festivals in NYC that featured playwrights including Lawrence Schwabacher and Brett Hursey. The company began producing full length work in 2019 with the world premiere of Raven Petretti-Stamper's 2020: A Fantasy at Shetler Studios in NYC. This short would not be possible without the magic provided by Domani Productions, and co-producers Mark Riccadonna and Michel Grey. They never wavered while steering our ship. This is SBP's first foray into the world of film but it most certainly won't be the last because of their efforts.
