Planets as Stars - Pay What You Wish Tickets

Pay What You Wish Matinee - Making theatre affordable for everyone!

Theatre LILA is proud to announce that its highly anticipated 2025–26 season begins this November with Planets as Stars, an autobiographical, immersive work by poet and performance artist Gina Cornejo.

Part cosmic romp, part intimate confessional, Planets as Stars follows Cornejo’s storytelling guide through white-knuckle wedding rants, divorce dance breaks, and the fumbling delight of late-bloomer queerness. The result is a “cringeworthy yet charming” evening that reminds us how the complexity of love is nothing if not comical, cataclysmic, and cosmic.

Blending music and soundscapes, prose and poetry, movement and whimsy, Cornejo crafts a space for collective healing with gusto and guts. This non-linear, autobiographical journey amplifies the devilish details we all know too well, while offering a humanizing, humbling reminder: the only constant is change.
