Percy Mackaye's 'Sanctuary' is a play in the form of a masque, exploring ecological themes and the relationship between humans and the natural world. The story follows a group of humans and birds as they come into conflict over the use of a sacred grove, ultimately finding a path toward reconciliation. Mackaye's use of myth and allegory creates a powerful work of art that speaks to contemporary concerns about the environment.
