Like a Virgo

A retro pop culture journey to self-discovery through stand-up and burlesque.

  • Written and Performed by: Michele da Costa

  • Directed by: Tash York

  • : Bella Dejac

Michele da Costa was beat. Incomplete. She’d been had, she was sad and blue. So she looked for guidance in the stars (both pop and constellation kinds) to find the sparkle within.

Through astrology memes and pop culture references Michele explores the challenges and joys of finding a passion later in life. Join her in a self-acceptance journey that celebrates the often invisible and misunderstood groups to which she belongs: Bisexuals, women over 40 and Virgos. Expect dark humour, oversharing, astrology banter and a bit of dancing (this is inspired by Madonna after all).

Take a chance to celebrate life 'Like a Virgo', it could be... it could be so nice!
