Is There Work on Mars?
Faye Yan
Can an Asian with a maths learning disability pass Nylon Tusk’s Mars Immigration Test? Welcome to an absurdist testing lab of dystopian speculations. Attempting to move to Mars via the Worker’s Visa, a woman with ADHD and dyscalculia finds herself in SpaceY’s testing lab. She fights through with her wide array of talents – striptease, beer pong and cheerleading – to not be the Asian failure who is just never enough. Is There Work on Mars? had a five-star run at Edinburgh Fringe 2024 and was nominated for Neurodiverse Review’s ADHD Comedy Award.
