Stellar Cellar is a journey through a woman's subconscious under the guise of a radio talk show about wine. Written by Christine Ferrera and Dan Hanrahan and conceived for the stage by Temple Crocker, the piece has been performed in-progress at the 14 Karat Cabaret, The Charm City Fringe Festival and VisArts. Now in its final form, Stellar Cellar is a strange, intimate and surprisingly funny exploration of memory and loss.

is a radio talk show about wine that becomes a journey through a woman’s subconscious.

As the host imbibes, her bizarre memories are conjured...

...funnel Cake and dipping' dots on the boardwalk, monks in Macedonia, the loss of her virginity in the back of a Honda Civic...

...until a fox and bear appear,

revealing the sorrow of the animals.

A dystopian weather and traffic report...

a car salesman from beyond the grave...

and songs of sleep.

Finally, the shade of Emily Dickenson guides the host into the outer-limits of the spirit-filled world.
