Alien Breakdown Play – Get-in Team
19:00, Tue 3rd – Sat 7th March 2026 at Corpus Playroom
When podcaster Terri Day reappears after her infamous public breakdown, she shocks her listeners by claiming to be an alien... and she’s stolen the only DNA test that can prove it.
Hiding out in a custom-built bunker after escaping the FBI at Area 51, Terri begins a chaotic livestream that captivates millions. But she’s not alone underground. Sharing her hideout is Alexis, an actual alien who chose to remain on Earth after an intergalactic exchange program- and they’re not thrilled about being held hostage.
Meanwhile, FBI Chief Spacial Investigator Cressida Womp leads the manhunt, driven not only by duty but by revenge: Terri also stole her painfully earnest teenage diary from Area 51’s “humanity capsule.” As Terri’s broadcast unravels into confession and conspiracy, she’s forced to confront her identity, her guilt, and the terrifying possibility that she might not be an alien at all.
Alien Breakdown Play is a darkly funny sci-fi thriller about loneliness, identity, and undiagnosed neurodivergence.
