NOVEMBER’S EPISODES:
Our “Space Sickness” episode format (debuted in May 2012). Watch as the crew of the Enterprise is infected with a strange space madness, created from audience suggestions. The plot of every show is created on the spot, and no two shows are the same.

ABOUT THE SHOW:
Where No Man Has Gone Before is an improvised parody of the original Star Trek television series. Each night the cast will use suggestions from the audience to create the world and plot of the show.

Where No Man Has Gone Before has met with widespread praise, and was an official selection of the Seattle Festival of Improv Theater 2012 and Improvaganza Hawaii Festival of Improv 2012. The show debuted to sold-out crowds in June 2011 and has been returning by popular demand ever since.

This show is recommended for adults and children ages 6 and up. Running time is approximately 70 minutes with one intermission.
