- Summary:
- "The first play by multimedia artist Vivek Shraya, about fame and personal transformation. Described as 'cultural rocket fuel' by Vanity Fair, Vivek Shraya is a multimedia artist whose art, music, novels, poetry, and children's books explore the beauty and power of personal and cultural transformation. How to Fail as a Popstar is Vivek's debut theatrical work, a oneperson show that chronicles with beguiling humour and insight her journey from singing in shopping malls to 'not quite' pop music superstardom. A reflection on the power of pop culture, dreams, disappointments, and self-determination, this astonishing work is a raw, honest, and hopeful depiction of the search to find one's authentic voice. The book includes colour photographs from the show's 2020 production in Toronto and a foreword by its director, Brendan Healy."-- Provided by publisher.
