Cannily, there is not a feather in sight during the entire 85-minute The Birds at the Mosaic Theatre -- appropriate because the subject is not an eerie avian apocalypse, but how humanity reacts under extreme pressure. Conor McPherson's adaptation is far more a sociological morality tale than Daphne du Maurier's 1952 suspenseful novelette or Alfred Hitchcock's 1963 pure thriller.
