'What if you fell in love with the person who publicly shamed you? Turning the ‘boy meets girl’ formula on its head, Minneapolis is an ‘almost’ love story set in a world conditioned to hate. Asking complex questions around privilege, harassment, and internet shaming, the play looks at what it means to be a pariah in our clickbait times.'

You have the responsibility to be all these things.

'Wren is driven.

Driven to be special.

So driven she wants to up, leave and never come back – to Earth that is.

'From the frenzied world of celebrity to the rampaging cult of ‘self-fulfillment’, The Mars Project looks to unravel the absurdities of our Me-First age. The award-winning team who brought you Great White now present a story about chasing your dreams – whatever it takes.
