Aurora is a starseed who yearns for a celestial voyage back to her home planet. On the eve of her thirtieth birthday she treks out to a field and puts out a signal, hoping to finally catch that ride. Inspired by the legendary UFO crash in Aurora, Texas, this captivating play intertwines themes of cosmic wonder, familial bonds, and the quest for belonging amidst the vastness of space.

Let the cosmic journey begin…
