SVT Announces the Rest of its 2002 Season ... and beyond!

AUSTIN, TX--Salvage Vanguard Theater announces the remaining shows in it's 2002 season, plus the shows it's planning to produce in 2003.

Intergalactic Nemesis Redux, two episodic radio serials performed in rep
Okay, so you may have seen the first one and you may have seen the second, but because each was around for so short a time it's unlikely that you've seen either. Now's your chance to see it for the first time or relive the chilling, yet heartwarming, memories of inimitable Pulitzer-winning reporter Molly Sloan, her intrepid research assistant Timmy Mendez, and the man from the future, Ben Wilcott as they battle to save two galaxies and then the universe from eminent destruction. The Intergalactic Nemesis and Return of the Intergalactic Nemesis, two episodic radio serials, will be performed live in rep, as they were originally performed with live sound effects, for the month of June. "The year is 1933. Are you ready for the invasion?"
JUNE 7 - 29

MotherBone, a world premiere opera by Graham Reynolds and Karen Hartman
Here it is. We've be talkiing about this for two friggin years. The project that will probably kill us. MotherBone takes an old Russian fairy tale, puts a contemporary spin on it, and then sets the whole thing to music. Golden Arm Trio's Graham Reynolds is composing it. Major award-winning playwright Karen Hartman is writing the libretto. Jason Neulander is directing. Holy crap!
