CAPTAIN SPACESHIP Flies Into FRINGE WORLD!

captain spaceship - northbridge digital screen slide

Join Captain Spaceship (Esther Longhurst) and her crew of intergalactic riff-raff as they travel through time and space exploring the cosmos, discovering new uncharted worlds and narrowly avoid copyright infringement.

Inspired by 1950’s Sci-fi serials, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Firefly, Red Dwarf and 90210, the Captain and her crew will make up their ongoing epic adventures live onstage aided by the audience’s suggestions. They could end up anywhere and anyWHEN and will have only their sharp improv skills, some cheap costumes and maybe some lasers to defend themselves!

Featuring members of Perth’s own improv-comedy institution The Big HOO-HAA! And the cast of the multi-award-winning FRANKIES, this is going to be one of the hot comedy tickets this Fringe season!
