LESBIAN SPACE CRIME @ Soho Theatre

An astronaut is accused of criminal activity against her ex-wife whilst on a mission thousands of miles from Earth.

It is the dawn of space-crime, and a new era for queer representation.
 

Accused.
Alone.
Gay.
 

Is she really a criminal... or a hero?
 

Isolated in space, she cracks on with being an astronaut but is caught up in a constellation of bad times. Cornered by her colleagues, berated by her boss, and jeopardised by a Gemini (her skank wife).
 

Thankfully, she’s not from one of 69* Earth-countries where she would be a criminal just for being gay at all.

​

Lesbian Space Crime is a comedy with slapdash songs about intergalactic queer dirtbags.

​

The show was shortlisted for New Diorama’s Untapped Award in 2020 and showcased as part of The Omnibus Theatre’s Engine Room in 2021.
