Photos: First look at Rise Up Art Alliance’s A STAR TREK CHRISTMAS
A Star Trek Christmas will run from November 15 - 17, 2024.
The story… StarFleet has assigned Captain Kirk and crew to holiday surveillance duty of the class M mining planet, Borz 5 in remote Sector 11- Santa’s sole supply of coalamite in the galaxy. All is calm, all is bright as the StarShip Enterprise maintains standard orbit until the Klingons show up with a scheme to get their names off the naughty list and destroy the coalamite supply. Will the Klingons stop Santa’s magical ride? Can Kirk, Spock, McCoy and crew save Christmas?
Playwright, Kandace Cleland has channeled her passion for the original Star Trek television series by Gene Rodenberry to create a joyful, holiday space adventure for the entire family. “Growing up as a Star Trek kid, my mind reeled with the possibilities of a galactic future. Every week I boldly joined the Enterprise crew as they ‘sought out new life and new civilizations where no one had gone before.’ This holiday, I’m continuing that journey and taking my community theatre friends with me. We are having a blast!”
