The Owl Answers is a one-act experimental play by Adrienne Kennedy. It premiered in 1965 at the White Barn Theatre in Westport, Connecticut one year after Kennedy's most well-known piece, the Obie Award-winning Funnyhouse of a Negro.[1][2] Subsequent productions have been alongside another of Kennedy's one-acts, A Beast Story, as Cities in Bezique.[3]
