As part of Upintheair Theatre’s short performance series The Array.
STARMAN by Pippa Mackie (inspired by the collective theme: The Shape of the Galaxy)
Starman is a dark comedy about a man and the hungry sucking loneliness that has led him to lock himself in his room for the rest of his life. Through his very unpopular VLOG - Daryl (aka Starman) will take his internet “friends” on a journey into his chosen exile. But Starman’s isolation may lead him to confront a part of himself he never knew existed.

Why The Array? In Astrophysics, an array is a group of satellites and telescopes which can be trained on a single phenomena to provide a more detailed, nuances, and multi-dimensional understanding of the subject than could be gained by a single instrument. The Array proposed the teams of artists as telescopes.
