Tony winning Page 73 will produce the world premiere of Majkin Holmquist’s Stargazers Off-Broadway next year. 

Directed by Colette Robert, the comedy will run April 8, 2024 through May 4, with opening night set for April 20 at the Connelly Theater.

Set at a haunted family farm, Stargazers aims to illuminate the tensions underlie our polarized society. As 2023's Page 73 Playwriting Fellow, Holmquist based the comedy on her own families central Kansas farm.

A somewhat recent transplant to New York City, Holmquist struggled to reconcile the stereotypical way many discussed places like her hometown. “I was experiencing a lot of conversations about the Great Plains, Midwest, Red States, fly-over country, and encountering a lot of really strange assumptions about the place that I come from—and on the flip side, I now go home and encounter very strange assumptions about the East Coast. These two conversations are seldom capturing the reality of the other. I wanted that feeling to persist in the play itself where people are coming with this assumption about who is on this farmland, and the politics of the people there—and then the people in Kansas also see through the lens of their assumptions, about the people who want to change this piece of land.”
