We presented the world premiere of this Austin original - a live action graphic novel -- to an audience of thousands in 2010, helping to launch a 25-city national tour. Now, the Zygonians and their tongue-in-cheek sci-fi adventure are back in town for one performance only. Characterizations by Shana Merlin, David Higgins, and Christopher Lee Gibson. Sound effects by Buzz Moran. Original score composed and played by Graham Reynolds. Projected comic-book artwork by Tim Doyle. Written and directed by Jason Neulander. Don't miss this all-ages show that the Austin Chronicle calls "Amazing!" The year is 1933. Are you ready for the adventure?

      When The Intergalactic Nemesis Book One - Target Earth was coming back for one night only at the Long Center for the Performing Arts I knew I had to go. This had not been my first time seeing this show. The sci-fi adventure story reminded me of things my parents or grandparents may have seen bits of in old Flash Gordon shorts. The story is laid out two fold. You have the brilliant art work of Tim Doyle telling the story set in 1933 of a news reporter and her side kick and a librarian from the future among other characters that make the time go by so quickly. I was mystified by the wonderful acting and multi voices of the actors Shana Merlin, David Higgins and Christopher Lee Gibson. They acted out their characters as they would if delivering it on a radio station but with so much more zest. The sound effects and musical score helped fill in all the pieces. I can't remember the person who gave the pre show speech but even though it was a tad long it had such heart and passion it was fun Collapse
