Picture This…

You’re a member of a 1930s radio studio audience. Before you sits the broadcast studio: the Wizard of Oz’s antechamber and Frankenstein’s lab rolled into one. Downstage, the sound effects booth, littered with train whistles, giant metal electrodes, dials, and gauges. The lights fade to black. A voice from the darkness: “Somewhere in the Carpathian Mountains of Eastern Europe…” And you’re transported through time and space.

Welcome to the world of The Intergalactic Nemesis.  The year is 1933.  Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Molly Sloan and her intrepid assistant Timmy Mendez are hot on the trail of a story. When a mysterious stranger saves their lives, they discover their journey is inextricably intertwined with his and the story they were seeking is much bigger than they could have possibly imagined! The fate of two galaxies hangs in the balance and our heroes are the only thing standing in the way of a devastating invasion of sludge monsters from the planet Zygon!  It's Star Wars meets Raiders of the Lost Ark with a little of Flash Gordon thrown in for good measure. And it rocks!

The spectacle of The Intergalactic Nemesis lies in the power of the audience's imagination. Think Where the Wild Things Are and you have the right idea. We start in a radio studio, but it’s not long before we’re all careening through outer space, following Molly’s adventures as she battles to save the galaxy from imminent destruction. 

The Austinist put it this way:  "It's pretty hard not to like Salvage Vanguard Theater's The Intergalactic Nemesis. ... An incredibly engaging, entertaining night at the theatre."

"More fun than I’ve had in a theatre in some time!"  --The Austin Chronicle

The Austin American-Statesman put it this way: "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, earthlings and aliens, witness an amazing event as Salvage Vanguard Theater brings a blast from the past with The Intergalactic Nemesis. … perfect summer entertainment."
