Astronauts Wanted

The Mars One Project, a sketchy Dutch enterprise that raised millions of dollars in the 2010s with talk of establishing a human colony on Mars, is the inspiration for this new play by Heloise Wilson, a mixture of physical theater and projections directed at the Tank by Saki Kawamura. The piece is based in part of interviews with scientists and real participants in the Mars One project; in addition to Wilson herself, the cast includes Marisela Grajeda Gonzalez, Regan Hicks, Gibran García and Katherine Bahena-Benitez.
