The Post-Meridian Radio Players Present:
Dangerous Adventures

Performances:
Thursday, May 1, 2025, at 8:00pm (pay-what-you-can)
Friday, May 2, 2025, at 8:00pm
Saturday, May 3, 2025, at 8:00pm
Location:
Guild Church (formerly Boston Brunch Church), 204 Elm Street, Somerville
(Note: the venue is theoretically accessible to those using mobility devices through the side entrance, but I would highly recommend arranging for someone to meet you at the door to navigate to the performance space.)

Our Spring 2024 show features three thrilling tales of adventure, The Most Dangerous Game, an original adaptation of Richard Connell's classic short story, the first episode of a new fantasy-adventure pastiche Townies and Dragons: Barrel Full of Peril, and the pirate adventure The Bonnie Tales of Captain Bellamy: Song of Trickery.

All PMRP productions are presented on stage in the style of old-time radio with actors at microphones and sound effects performed live by our talented Foley artists!

(I'll be behind the concessions table on Saturday and possibly Friday!)

The nights are turning crisp and the leaves are starting to fall. The wind plays with the trees, making the shadows dance along your window.

All the signs and omens proclaim one thing….Halloween is coming! And that means it’s time for another macabre march to The Post-Meridian Radio Players show of fear and surprise.
But this time we’re leaving the library and going out for some fresh air. To enjoy a lovely nature walk and perhaps see some of nature’s wonder. For this time PMRP is not down in the back halls or darkened reading rooms. Oh no…this time we present Tomes of Terror: Campfire Tales! A collection of bone-chilling tales of ghosts and madness, murder and mystery. Everything to make you huddle just a bit closer to the safety of your s’mores.

Join us from October 21^st through Saturday the 29^th as Tomes of Terror: Campfire Tales reigns over Responsible Grace Church in Davis Square.

Stories both classic and new will greet you as we provide the greatest audio drama live on stage! And of course we’ll have our classic retro candies and sodas available.
So come on down with us into the woods. Only $15, $12 for seniors and students. Costume contest with prizes on the 29^th!

Sorry for the short notice folks, but I just realized that I don't think anyone's advertised the Post Meridian Radio Players' latest show here, which is a shame because a) it's great, and b) the last performance starts in... about 3.5 hours. D'oh! But hey, better late than never, so...

TONIGHT (Saturday) at 8pm, The Post Meridian Radio Players proudly present a reprise of our gender swapped/spectrum slid adaptation of the classic Star Trek script, The Trouble with Tribbles, originally performed at Arisia. Admission is FREE with donations gratefully accepted. Come hear the adventures of Jane T. Kirk and her crew live!

PSA: The Post-Meridian Radio Players have some open roles for the upcoming reprise of their gender-swapped live adaptation of The Trouble with Tribbles! Details from Intrepid Director Mindy follow...

The Post-Meridian Radio Players are auditioning for three cast members for a gender-swapped performance of the Star Trek original series episode “The Trouble with Tribbles”. Auditions will be held April 17th at 7, 8, and 9pm at a private home in the Davis Square area. Please email htucker.theatre@gmail.com with the subject "PMRP Tribbles Audition" and your audition time preference.

The show will be performed at Unity Church in Somerville, May 29-31, and at Boston ComicCon at some point over the weekend of August 9th. Rehearsals will be in the Davis Square area of Somerville, most likely 2 to 4 times prior to each performance, depending on how rehearsals go.

For those unfamiliar with the episode “A dispute over control of a planet brings Enterprise to a space station, where they must deal with Klingons, edgy Federation officials, and a previously-unknown species of small, unbearably cute, voraciously hungry and rapidly-multiplying furry creatures.” (plot summary by memory-alpha.org)

The Post-Meridian Radio Players performs shows in the style of the Golden Age of Radio with actors in front of microphones holding their scripts. Some sound effects may also be performed live on stage.
Character descriptions listed below. All parts are open to female actors of any race or ethnicity, with the exception of Uhura for whom we are looking for a black male actor.

Mr. Uhura – Chief Communications Officer. Kind, strong, curious, brave, and starts off a whole mess of trouble by purchasing a tribble.
Ms. Lurry – Manager of K7 Station – a bureaucrat trying to stay out of this nonsense if possible.
Ms. Baris – The Federation’s undersecretary in charge of agricultural affairs in the quadrant. Arrogant and imperious.

The Post Meridian Radio Players, frequently of Davis Square, are putting on a show in the distant land of Arlington! Come see the Big Broadcast of 1962 (A Byfar Christmas Carol), at the Regent Theatre in Arlington Center. Shows Thursday night (tonight), Friday night, and Saturday night at 8pm, with a Saturday matinee at 2pm.

The Big Broadcast series is an homage to the golden age of radio, with actors playing old time radio actors, running around frantically, having technical problems, and wrangling guests. It's fun and funny, and I'm looking forward to another wonderful show in the tradition of the Big Broadcast of 1938 (The War of the Worlds) at the Somerville Theatre in 2009.

You can still get discount tickets at:
https://www.goldstar.com/events/arlington-ma/the-big-broadcast-of-1962
...but if you get them there, I urge you to post an honest review after you see the show -- some Goldstar buzz will bring in a bigger audience for the remaining shows.

If you're going to the Pride 2013 Festival tomorrow (June 8) at City Hall Plaza in Boston, please visit the table shared by Theatre@First and The Post-Meridian Radio Players! We'll be representing part of Davis Square's live theatre scene. Find out about upcoming auditions (pretty much all rehearsals and performances take place in Davis), learn how to get involved as an actor, artist, designer, techie or crewbie, and grab some free swag while it lasts.

Pride is a rain or shine event, and rain is expected, but hoping to see you there anyway!

This week's tragic events have caused some disruptions to the Cambridge Science Festival, including to two Somerville-connected events that had been scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.

Post-Meridian Radio Players have cancelled tomorrow's Sci-Fi Double Feature, which was to have a final performance at the MIT Museum. The producers feel that the content of 'THEM!' is inappropriate to perform again at this time.

Artisan's Asylum have postponed tomorrow's scheduled Battlebot Contest, because yesterday's lockdown closed the Asylum and interrupted the teams' robot construction projects. The event will now take place on Wednesday, April 24, from 6 to 9:30 pm, at the Armory, 191 Highland Ave.
