An Enterprising Operetta

Los Angeles' Crown City Theatre Company is taking Gilbert & Sullivan to where no light operetta has gone before with their current production of USS Pinafore.

Billed as an "outer space musical", the new production is a hilarious mash-up of HMS Pinafore and the Star Trek universe, complete with Tribbles, Vulcans and an alien lizard man played by Movie Dearest's own James Jaeger!

USS Pinafore continues through June 27.  Click here for more information, and click here for a special video preview.

Thanks for the plug! Even though I'm Mr. Jaeger's partner, I can objectively state this is a clever, thoroughly enjoyable show. It even has a great transporter effect! Besides, Lt. Uhura herself, Nichelle Nichols, saw it and loved it!
