- Summary
- "Me husband died and it's taken my whole life but doctor, 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, doctor: I'll be needing a medical certificate to prove I'm fit for travel. I'm 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 jewel from internationally acclaimed theatre maker, Alfred Fagon Award winner and George Devine Award 2022 finalist Mojisola Adebayo." -- Publisher's Description.
