Meet Darryl.... ugh... sorry, STARMAN.... he is a 43 year old man, and he is not dealing well with all the social politics these days. As his solution, he has decided to lock himself into his basement suite apartment ... for the rest of his life! Ya, that should solve it.... or does he just disappear, like a star being sucked into a blackhole?

This dark comedic episode sounds an alarm on social alienation and the effects of extreme isolation on mental health. Strong language and adult themes presented.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;An audio-drama for mature audiences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Meet Darryl... sorry... STARMAN! He is a 43 year old man, and is not dealing well with all the social politics these days. As his solution, he has decided to lock himself into his basement suite apartment - for the rest of his life! Does that help his situation, or does he just disappear, like a star being sucked into a blackhole?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This dark comedic episode sounds an alarm on social alienation and the effects of extreme isolation on mental health. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Strong language and adult themes presented.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Winner of multiple international awards for outstanding episode!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FOLLOW US: @soundthealarmmt&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FULL INFORMATION: Artistic Team, donations, social media, awards... please visit https://soundthealarm.ca/theatre-for-the-ears&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
