The Empress Strikes Back Theatre & Performing Arts



Empress Stah is on a mission to make a performance in outer space, in fact she has been on this mission for 10 years and counting. The destination is a long way from home, so small steps have been taken in order to get her closer to realising her dream. Take a trip with Stah as she looks back at some of the highlights of her journey thus far including her experience of Zero Gravity aboard a parabolic flight and the making of a guerrilla street video as the Starship Trooper. Looking to the future we will explore current plans for the off-planet evolution of the species, including the colonisation of Mars and efforts to interface the human brain with artificial intelligence. Expect visual media and belly laughs as we take a romp through the sublime and ridiculous elements of this outrageous project. This show is a work in progress.
