TV: The Last Star Fighter at NYMF

The New York Musical Theatre Festival presents The Last Star Fighter, with book by Fred Landau; Original Screenplay by Jonathan Betuel; Lyrics and Music by Skip Kennon

From Jonathan Betuel's screenplay to the beloved 1984 film comes the story of 18-year-old Alex Rogan, stuck in a tiny trailer park with nothing much to do but master his favorite video game. Little does he know that the video game has been placed on Earth by Centauri, a con man from another galaxy desperate to save his people and (more importantly) make a buck or two, in this cosmically-entertaining sci-fi fantasy romance.

Performances at Theater at St. Clements, 423 West 46th Street: September 28 at 8PM; September 29 at 1PM; October 3 at 9PM; October 5 at 1PM; October 6 at 9PM; October 7 at 4PM
