I woke up to some great news this morning! All my NY news sources (i.e. Playbill) are saying that William Shatner is coming to Broadway! The 80 year old TV and movie legend (and god to some Trekkies) is said to be bringing a one man show to the Music Box Theatre in February! This should be no big surprise. Shatner just ended his Canadian tour "How Time Flies: An Evening With William Shanter" that played in 6 cities in October & November of this year. And back in April he was in Australia & New Zealand with another one man show called "Kirk, Crane & Beyond: William Shanter Live". Clearly he was trying out material in preparation for a US run. According to Playbill.com he's changed the title again calling it "Shatner's World: We Just Live in It." The article goes on to say that "The Broadway engagement will kick off a 15-week national tour." Smart. Very smart. Shatner's official web site and twitter feed (@WilliamShanter) are silent on the topic. I'm sure his people will make a more official announcement soon.
SOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!
