A Play About Space

A Play About Space

Join Space Captain Florencia Dreggs and her bumbling right hand man Warner Hornshaw as they voyage across the galaxy going up against cyborg zombies, killer robots, aliens with four arms, and the horrifying crab-like Khalkalari.

A Play About Space is every sci-fi film you loved when you were ten and every sci-fi film you love today all packed into one high-octane and hilarious hour. This award-winning family-friendly frenzy will fill Space Place at Carter Observatory with wit and wonder on a galactic scale. My Accomplice are so excited to partner with Space Place for this special Fringe season. To perform in their actual planetarium feels like the right home for this galactic theatrical experience.

Delightfully and magically theatrical as well as being fun, funny and intense, A Play About Space is one of the most pants-tightening extreme theatre productions you will see all year. The critics agree: “Achingly funny” - Capital Times. “Comic genius” - Theatreview.org.nz. “Joyous and hilarious” - Wordonthestreet.co.nz. “...had the audience in stitches” - Wotzon.com. “Entertaining and imaginative” - Otago Daily Times.

A Play About Space won BEST THEATRE at the Dunedin Fringe and BEST DESIGN at the Wellington Fringe as well as being nominated for a host of other awards including MOST ORIGINAL PRODUCTION at the 2013 Chapman Tripp Theatre Awards.

A Play About Space stars Chapman Tripp Theatre Award winners Hannah Banks, Alex Grieg and Paul Waggott, and is directed by Uther Dean.
