1st ACT

In one of the magical worlds, a young Seagull named Jonathan Livingston decides that he does not want to spend his whole life just in search of food and sleep, but wants to figure out the flight. He trains at night and achieves great success.

He is called to the Flock council. Jonathan rejoices, thinking that he will be praised for his success. But he is expelled in disgrace. Alone, Livingston overcomes the various dangers that the world outside the Flock is full of. And then he gets caught in a hurricane, which carries him so high that he finds himself in the upper world.

He is greeted by two shining sky gulls and introduced to Teacher Chiang. Despite the exciting learning, Jonathan begins to miss the Earth. He feels that the earth’s seagulls need him. The Teacher tries to dissuade Jonathan, but, sacrificing his heavenly life, Livingston returns to the lower world with the desire to teach the art of flight to simple seagulls. After descending, Livingston is joined by a Seagull named Fletcher. Fletcher confronts the flock, defending Livingston’s teachings, after which the flock expels the "follower". Livingston decides to return to the upper world and takes Fletcher with him.


2nd ACT

New time. Fashionable city "Livingston City". Livingston’s teaching turns into a fashion trend and loses its essence behind the tinsel of glamor. The seagulls of the new world have forgotten what fast and free flight is! They just like to enjoy the benefits of the new world.

Followers of Livingston’s Teachings become participants in various shows and social events. However, a young, bold Seagull named Anthony mocks the new world’s way of life. He enjoys a real free flight. Suddenly he notices a Seagull at the next fashionable party — a local celebrity who is trying to surprise everyone with the fact that she supposedly knows how to fly high and fast, like Livingston, to prove to the flock that it is not difficult at all!

She climbs the highest skyscraper-nest, and suddenly realizes that nothing will work out, and, frightened, she falls down — but Anthony saves her, at the cost of his life! The Flock is in shock! Sky gulls descend from the upper world and take Anthony to their place. Livingston notices one small seagull, who asks to take her with him and teach her what the sky gulls can do. Livingston takes her on as a student. Sky gulls with their clear flight makes the flock reflect again on what is truly important in life.


"To the real Jonathan Seagull, who lives within us all".

Richard Bach.
Summary:
The key design element of the stage space is a huge 100-meter media wall. The viewer finds himself either at the foot of a mountain, or in the endless sky, then in the depths of a bottomless ocean or inside of an all-destroying tornado.
