MAY 1, 2023 - Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is regarded by many as the best of the Trek films. Beyond doubt, Nicholas Meyer’s skilled writing and direction steered the ship, so to speak, in the right direction. But what if Star Trek: The Next Generation’s Lieutenant Commander Data, in his quest to be more human, decided to write a musical about the historic Kirk and Khan’s final meeting?

 That’s the premise of Khan!!! The Musical! which is set to open Off-Broadway next week. I got to sit down with some of the folks behind this new show to find out how it all began and what New York’s theatergoers can expect. Get tickets: https://www.khaniscoming.com
