Shows so good, we had to do them again!

Gender-Swapped Star Trek: City on the Edge of Forever and Spock's Brain

In June we’ll be reprising two of our Gender-Swapped Star Trek adaptations, and you’ll have three opportunities to see them both! Performances will be June 9th at 7:30pm (with a talkback with the director and cast), June 10th at 2:00pm, and June 10th at 7:30pm, all at Unity Somerville.

In “The City on the Edge of Forever”, Captain Jane Kirk and Ms. Spock must travel back through time into the 1930s, where a delirious Doctor McCoy has drastically changed the course of history — a change that seems to involve a man who has captivated Kirk. Will she make the difficult choice needed to preserve the past and save the future?

In “Spock’s Brain”, after an encounter with a mysterious, beautiful man from an advanced starship, Spock’s brain has gone missing! McCoy can keep her body alive for now, but time is running out — can Kirk and her landing party find the mysterious man and save Spock before it’s too late?

Read more about the performances here! Attendance is free! (Donations are appreciated.)

“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.

“By Any Other Name” Reprise

On November 14, the Post-Meridian Radio Players will reprise the Gender-Swapped Star Trek: episode we performed at the Arisia science-fiction convention in January, “By Any Other Name” over Zoom. In our adaptation of this Original Series episode invaders from the Andromeda Galaxy take over the Enterprise to make a centuries-long journey back to their own galaxy as part fof a plan of conquest. The crew of the Enterprise seems to have no chance against the incredibly advanced Andromedans, but half-Vulcan Ms. Spock’s telepathic powers and perspective at least help the humans understand what they’re up against, and Scotty may have a trick or two up her sleeve too!

We’ll be streaming this LIVE at 8pm on YouTube at https://youtu.be/aIxcnRy4F2Y (fixed URL). We hope you can join us!

To save the life of her friend, Captain Jane Kirk takes the Enterprise to Vulcan so that Ms. Spock can marry her betrothed T’Pring, but the Captain may pay an unexpected price.

The Naked Time reprise

We reprise PMRP’s gender-swapped take on the classic Star Trek episode “The Naked Time”, featuring Capt. Jane Kirk, her half-Vulcan science officer Ms. Spock, and the crew of the starship Enterprise, originally performed at the 2017 Arisia science-fiction convention. While investigating a lost research team on a dying planet, Ms. Spock’s landing party discover that the crew of the previous expedition froze to death under bizarre, irrational circumstances. When they return to the Enterprise, they start to behave erratically, and even stoic Ms. Spock has trouble controlling her emotions. Has whatever madness befell the research expedition spread to the crew of the Enterprise?

Journey to Babel reprise

We reprise PMRP’s gender-swapped take on the classic Star Trek episode “Journey to Babel”, featuring Capt. Jane Kirk, her half-Vulcan science officer Ms. Spock, and the crew of the starship Enterprise, originally performed at the 2014 Arisia science-fiction convention. Come for the intrigue, stay to learn why Ms. Spock’s mother chose to marry a human man!

Doctor Who: The Starship of Madness

Suffering Shuggoths! The Roaring Twenties have just begun! Flappers! Gin joints! Deep Ones? A newly-regenerated Doctor joins forces with a struggling, nightmare-plagued writer by the name of Lovecraft to investigate attacks in Boston by monstrous creatures. Who is this eccentric Professor Whiteman who appears to be behind it all? What is the secret of the Professor's amazing chair that can seemingly cure the insane? What truly goes on inside the Miskatonic Gentlemen's Club? What will happen to the world, and every living being on it, when C'thulhu rises? Our performance at the 2011 Arisia science-fiction convention, which we then reprised in March 2011, was a mashup of Doctor Who and H. P. Lovecraft.
