About Dogstar
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?
Daisy Hall returns to Hampstead Downstairs, following sell-out hit Bellringers in 2024. Dogstar is a darkly comic story about the forces that shape our lives, even at the edge of the world. Lucy Morrison returns to Hampstead following 2025 sell-out hit Personal Values, Akedah and The Animal Kingdom. Her other credits include Hope Has a Happy Meal, That Is Not Who I Am and Scenes with girls (all Royal Court).

I enjoyed it. Highly recommended.
Beautifully acted, a real rustle between powers, kindness and brute functionality in the face of incoming death. The story grips and what more can one want. This is less about the plot, moreso about the human connections and striving to be better to one another when facing your last days.
I think it’s trying to be an absurdist comedy in the Beckett style but didn’t work for me
