The City on the Edge of Forever

Tonight, Feb. 11, at 9:30pm, we will perform our gender-swapped adaptation of the classic Star Trek episode “City on the Edge of Forever” over Zoom. In this episode, originally written by sci-fi icon Harlan Ellison, Captain Jane T. Kirk and Ms. Spock must follow a delirious Dr. McCoy into the 1930s before she can alter the course of history. Will Kirk make the necessary sacrifice to save the past and secure the future?

We’ll be streaming this LIVE at 9:30pm at this link on PMRP's YouTube channel! We hope you can join us!

“Mirror Mirror” reprise

On PMRP's YouTube channel, we reprised the Gender-Swapped Star Trek: episode we performed at the Arisia science-fiction convention in January, “Mirror Mirror”, live on YouTube. In our adaptation of this Original Series episode, a transporter malfunction sends Kirk, McCoy, Scotty, and Uhura into a parallel universe in which the Federation is replaced by an evil empire, promotion occurs through assassination, and everything seems changed on the Enterprise...for the worse! How will our heroes get back to their own timeline?

You can find us via PMRP's YouTube channel or learn more about the performance on its event page here.
