Alone in a silent room, a man waits for a knock on his door. As the minutes tick by, he remembers a life filled with daring and laughter, with parties and heartbreak -- a life spent searching for the courage to be truly himself. Inspired by the true story of the scandalous life and lonely death of Ernest Boulton -- better known as one half of the now infamous Victorian cross-dressing double-act Fanny and Stella -- Stella is a theatrical love-letter to a truly remarkable person and a timely meditation on the dangerous art of living in the present.
