Astronaut Albright is accused of criminal activity against her ex-wife, heralding the dawn of space-crime and a new era for queer representation. Accused. Alone. Gay. Is she really a criminal... or a hero? Thankfully, she's not from one of 69* Earth-countries where she'd be a criminal for being gay at all. Airlock's Offie-nominated, 'raucously funny' (****, LostInTheatreland.co.uk) musical comedy about intergalactic queer dirtbags returns after a sell-out Soho Theatre premiere. From the creators of Pansexual Pregnant Piracy (Soho Theatre) and Count Dykula. *nice ;)
