STAR TREK REVIEWED

Amateur video by Dan Ashland of a live, open air 'theatre in the round' performance of 'Space Seed' by an unknown theatrical group.

Youtube user VTActor007 put this video-tape memory online on June 1, 2020, of a skit done with Mark Lenard, saying, "He thought I did a great Shatner :) this was 1991 I think so long ago I can't remember"

Ever noticed how there are so few of the annoying technical glitches we have today on Star Trek? The Enterprise must have a truly amazing IT department!

Not content with her earthly empire, Great Britain has turned her gaze outward, and Her Majesty's Navy now patrols the vast expanse of the final frontier. But where England goes, so goes her notorious class system, and Chief Security Officer Josephine Corcoran and lowly ensign Ralph Rackstraw find themselves all at sea when they fall madly in love. With Romulans in the neutral zone, restless Klingons itching for a fight, and Josephine's social-climbing father, and captain, determined to marry her off to a pompous admiral, the stakes have never been higher for Gilbert and Sullivan's most famous lass and the sailor she loves.

Starship Edsel is a Star Trek inspired farce set aboard the Federation Starship Edsel towards in the early 25th century. It is based upon a LARP written and developed by Brandon Brylawski, who is also a producer and head writer on this show.

​The Edsel is a cruiser, Edsel class (the only one), largely regarded as a failure in ship design. Somehow, serious flaws in architecture and engineering were not caught until the prototype ship was completed. From its launch, it has been plagued with mechanical and operational problems that have played havoc with its fitness and combat-readiness, to the point where it became the butt of jokes throughout Starfleet.

 Soon it had become a dumping ground for personnel who were considered too disruptive or incompetent for front-line service, but who had not done anything sufficiently egregious to warrant being discharged. Eventually, Starfleet Command sent down an order to retire the embarrassing vessel, to the relief of all involved. But it was not to be. At the last moment, the Federation Council countermanded the directive: a political use had been found for the vessel. The Edsel's new continuing mission:

• To stay in permanent parking orbit around the vacation planet of Atlantis

• To deal with vapid and overbearing VIPs

• To boldly give tours of an "Authentic Federation Starship"!
