'‘bald heads and blue stars’ is an original verbatim play by Sarah Peters that explores the female experience of Alopecia. Alopecia is an autoimmune condition that results in varying degrees of hair loss. It is like an uninvited house guest; it gives no warning of its arrival, you never know how long it’s going to stick around and it always behaves badly in front of your friends. Sarah spent three months interviewing women with Alopecia, and this exciting new Australian play shares these stories of heartbreak and hilarity as we journey through beauty, identity, tattoos and deciding when to tell your new boyfriend that you wear a wig.'
