Dogstar in London
Playwright Daisy Hall returns to Hampstead with Dogstar, a darkly comic tale set aboard an icebound whaling ship where the crew are dropping like flies, mutiny brews and strange visions spread.
Following the sell-out success of Bellringers in 2024, Hall brings the world premiere of her new play to Hampstead Downstairs, directed by Lucy Morrison, who also returns to the venue.
Book Dogstar tickets
Book tickets now for the world premiere production of Dogstar, from playwright Daisy Hall. Tickes are available now.
“I’ve been sailing nearly twenty years. Never any problems, never any ‘bad luck’ or whatever. I mean just the usual stuff, things go wrong… but nothing like this.”
The crew of the Dogstar are dropping like flies. Whalers with no whales left to catch, they have been icebound for months, and a whiff of mutiny is in the air as they look to cast blame. But something strange is happening. Are the crew’s heavenly visions a symptom of scurvy, a result of the endless polar night, or a chance at salvation?
