The Astrolo-J Monologues

About The Astrolo-J Monologues

This is for all the girlies who love Co-Star and can’t afford therapy.

It’s late at night, Jordy has just finished DJing at Sneaky Pete’s. Suddenly she’s approached by a young girl - in tears - begging for dating advice after being messed around by a guy. We follow both to Jordy’s afters, where Jordy dishes her own awful dating history in a bid to help this girl make better decisions - through the only way she knows how… ASTROLOGY and wine.

Featuring original monologues about why dating men of all star signs is a total nightmare, and musical performances to evoke self love, Jordy’s stories about each zodiac sign will look back at a decade of sex and embracing your inner slut through the process.

Join Non-Binary Diva Jordy Joans at the afters in her very own living room for her third autobiographical show at the Netherbow Theatre, following on from Wasted Youth (2019) and The Honeymoon Period (2020).
