Riding on the coat-tails of the success of May 2009’s Monkey Sci-Fi Horror Theatre and April 2010’s Banana Festival, Monkeyman Productions presents Monkey Sci-Fi Horror Theatre II, featuring two one-act plays by D.J. Sylvis: Phoenix II: The Mongolar Maneuver and Dead Man’s Party.
In Phoenix II, we’re back on the set of the long-running sci-fi franchise as the cast reunites for their triumphant return to primetime. And what would the television event of the year be without a guest appearance by John Taylor, ‘Commodore Philk’ from the original series? But when Taylor finds out that his guest co-star is an old rival, sparks fly.
First performed in 2009, this new version of Dead Man’s Party tells the familiar story of four guys trying to survive the zombie apocalypse. As the human race is under siege from the undead hordes outside, our four heroes are content to stay in their basement playing Xbox, reading comic books and arguing over countless games of D&D. For them, the zombie apocalypse might be the best thing that ever could have happened.
Monkey Sci-Fi Horror Theatre II opens at the Palmerston Library Theatre (560 Palmerston Ave., Toronto, ON) on October 28, 2010.
