Description

Winner of Best New Play at the Offies Awards 2024My husband died and it's taken my whole life but Dr, I've never had one and I want one, before I die...

My orgasm has got to be out there - somewhere! I know you all think I'm losing it, that I'm some kind of a space cadet and you might just be right about that!

So one last job for you Dr: I'll be needing a medical certificate to prove I am fit for travel.

I am going away... Meet Mrs: an old lady who goes into outer space… in search of her own orgasm.

Isn’t that where all orgasms go? Her quest is sparked by three encounters: a young neighbour who discloses a secret, an old friend who reveals she is intersex, and a would-be lesbian lover in a launderette who offers Mrs two drops of her own pressed lavender and a smile that says, ‘I handle delicates with care’.

Told through one woman, a live DJ, and creative captions, with animations by Candice Purwin: STARS is a moving and joyful, sensitive yet funny, Afrofuturist odyssey.

A ‘concept album on stage’, the hugely original STARS is the latest play from internationally acclaimed theatre maker, Alfred Fagon award-winner and George Devine Award 2022 finalist, Mojisola Adebayo. This edition was published to coincide with the Tamasha and ICA co-production in April 2023.
