A solo survivor of the human race finds himself on a space ship with an assembled crew of unwitting audience members. His reluctance to be the chosen saviour of our species is made apparent as he struggles with his ill-fitting, misgendered uniform.
Captain Gupta engaged her crew in a whirlwind adventure of sexual tension and terror as we hurtled towards a deadly black hole. The narrative is controlled by an invisible spaceship computer; the venue at Junction 27 was an ideal setting. Wonderful facial expressions and physical contortions by our intrepid leader had the audience in stitches. Lots of laughter, lots of fun, lots of audience participation…until the realisation hit us. Destruction and terror may await us. Our planet depends on human intervention for survival. The outcome of the show is hope and joy.
