It’s the not-too-distant-future, and Earth can barely support life, so an eccentric tech billionaire blasts off in a spaceship to colonize Mars. Travelling alongside him are his much-younger wife, his over-eager assistant and her skeptical husband, and an advanced AI program. When the hyper-sleep pods malfunction, however, all four humans will have no choice but to get along with each other in cramped quarters with dwindling supplies throughout the entire seven month journey. Interweaving class, climate change, sex, and technology, this dark comedy asks, “How much further can we take all this?” And, “whose fault is this, really?”

This reading is the culmination of New Year, New Draft, Loud Fridge's playwright's residency focused on developing plays from San Diego playwrights.

It's the night before Hogswatch. And it's too quiet.

Superstition makes things work in the Discworld, and undermining it can have consequences. It's just not right to find Death creeping down chimneys and trying to say 'Ho Ho Ho…'

It's the last night of the year, the time is turning, and if Susan, gothic governess and Death's granddaughter (sort of), doesn't sort everything out by morning, there won't be a morning. Ever again…

Adapted by Terry Pratchett's long-time collaborator Stephen Briggs, this play text version of Pratchett's bestselling Discworld novel Hogfather wittily and faithfully reimagines the story for the stage.
