Different Stars: A Reckoning with Time, Trauma, and Circumstance

When James opens a box of artifacts from his first breakup, he reckons with memories that haunt him of a first queer love gone awry. Starring James Jackson, Jr., Danielle Buonaiuto, Victoria Huston-Elem, and Karl Saint Lucy. Conceived after the life-changing aftermath of Saint Lucy's first-ever breakup, Different Stars is a subset of more than 40 songs written in grief. For this condensed, 40-minute version, twelve of the songs are set in the present day during the events of the pandemic. They become a reckoning with time, trauma, and circumstance. Words by Karl Saint Lucy and William Shakespeare; music by Karl Saint Lucy.
