Six elderly eccentrics are crammed aboard a spaceship bound for Mars. When one of them is extra-unpleasantly murdered -- in a room locked from the inside -- the survivors must solve this zero-gravity mystery… or wind up the next victims! It's Knives Out meets Monty Python, with one actor rocketing his way thru a crazy constellation of 10 characters.

This production is part of the 2026 Fertile Ground Festival of New Works -- a program of the Portland Area Theater Alliance. The festival runs April 10th-26th. More info, including discount festival passes, at fertilegroundpdx.org
