Event Description:
The Emil Buehler Planetarium is proud to partner with Dark Side of Saturn Productions, to host Space, directed by Kevin Becker. This science fiction drama made its premiere at the 2016 Orlando International Fringe Festival and won the Critics Choice Award for Technical Achievement. The Genesis IV and the associated uniforms were designed and constructed by Evan Miga. Video production by Walter Lowe of Blackburst Entertainment.
Space is an original work by local writer Corey Volence. Inspired by the works of the late Sam Shepard, Edward Albee, Samuel Beckett, and Jean-Paul Sartre.
An Orlando Sentinel review of Space during Fringe Festival called the show “top-quality”. Acknowledging what may have been “top-quality” at Fringe can be improved upon, this partnership with the Planetarium will allow us to push far beyond our previous capabilities.
Synopsis:
The four person crew of the Genesis IV are a month away from concluding a five year journey to colonize a new planet. What could possibly go wrong?
A discussion about the science of space travel will be discussed after each performance hosted by planetarium director Derek Demeter.
