Galaxy Trek...The Lost Episodes

To bawdily go where no man has gone before!

Denver, CO – The twisted minds that brought you ‘The Night of the Living Dead’ like it was never meant to be seen - live and on stage - are at it again! The Bug Theatre and PaperCat Films present the silly, sexy, sci-fi space parody ‘Galaxy Trek...The Lost Episodes.’

Journey along with Captain Quirk, Mr Spork, Scotchy, Dr. Bones, and the crew of the Secondprise, as they bawdily go where no man has gone before! Join us for two exciting ‘lost’ episodes and watch as the crew crash lands on Galligan's Island ! Marvel as Captain Quirk has his Mojo stolen by the evil Klingies! Blush when you see what really goes on in the transponder room!

And as a special double-feature bonus, The Scoopy Doo Gang gets a little help from Abraham Lincoln in solving 'The Mystery of the Ghost of the Haunted Lighthouse of Pirate's Cove!' What this has to do with the crew of the Secondprise is anyone's guess, but all will be revealed!

“As a lifelong Trekkie and Scooby Doo fan since childhood, this show has been a blast to write and direct. We like to think of it as an homage to our childhood TV heroes, rather than a parody,” said Kris Hipps, the show’s director and one of its writers.

Another writer, Jessamyn Geesaman, added: “Being such a geek myself, I had so much fun spoofing all the things I’ve been a geek about over all these years.”

Many from the cast of ‘The Night of the Living Dead’ join the crew of the Secondprise, including Duane Brown (Captain Quirk), Patrick Mann (Dr. Bonesy), Jessamyn Geesaman (Libida), and Kris Hipps (Janice Randy). Newcomers to The Bug stage include Jeff Bontrager (Spork), Tom Auclair (Mr. Scotch) Robert Payo (Jagoff), Sara Michael (Frack, the evil Klingie Queen), Pete Yribia (Dorg, evil Klingie King), Cara Schiff (Eroticella) and Jeanette Cerami (the ill-fated Yoeman Duncan). Theatre vet Jonathan Ruiz is the Assistant Director/Stage Manager.

The four episodes that make up ‘Galaxy Trek...The Lost Episodes’ were written by Kris Hipps, Duane Brown, Patrick Mann and Jessamyn Gessaman. Produced by Donna Morrison, Alex Weimer and Kris Hipps. Directed by Kris Hipps.
