Celestial Nobodies Returns to the Stage – Watch this Space
Potentially Playing Productions Today Monday 27 June 2022 announces that popular theatre show ‘Celestial Nobodies’ is returning for a second, freshly developed season this August 9th to 13th at BATS Theatre, Wellington.
Celestial Nobodies written by Evangelina Telfar is a witty polylogue that follows the personified planets in our solar system as they tackle conversations of identity and wider social issues.
First launched in 2021 as a sold-out New Zealand Fringe Festival development season, Celestial Nobodies returns with a newly developed script, music, design, and brighter sights.
Combining astronomical science, theatrical monologues and a hint of musical theatre, Celestial Nobodies is an engaging and fresh take on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths) with a healthy dash of Queer cosmic sparkle.
Corey Spence of Art Murmurs reviews: “My time with the heavenly bodies of our milky way was a blast, and their stories remind us of individuality. It is a love song to uniqueness and self-care and simultaneously an appeal for tolerance and respect.”
Six stellar local performers will take to the stage at BATS Theatre alongside a new set, sound, and lighting design. Be sure to set your alarms and ready your telescopes to be star struck.
Celestial Nobodies runs for five nights only from the 9th to 13th of August 7.30pm at BATS Theatre (The Stage), 1 Kent Terrace. One performance will be NZSL interpreted, and more information will be available soon on the BATS website. Presented by Potentially Playing Productions with producer Bethany Miller, this play is written by Evangelina Telfar and directed by Anastasia Matteini-Roberts.
Tickets are $18-$22 and are available through the BATS Theatre website. For more details visit https://bats.co.nz/whats-on/celestial-nobodies/.
The season is sponsored by MEAN Productions with support from the Wellington City Council.
