Welcome to Start Trekkin NY's Space Blorg!

All Hail, super nova improv fans! Welcome to the official blog of the most far out comedic improv group in New York City, Start Trekkin NY.

You realize of course that extra terrestrials do not merely blog, they blorg. So we here on the great mother Earth carry on the tradition started in Rigel 7 by commander Droog Malarken when he was attempting to hide Federation secrets from the invading Romulan fleet by posting anti-matter formulas on the super-stellar-net in the guise of an Andorian beetle cake recipe blorg. Don't worry, the day was saved, the top secret sub-quarkian information was slyly transmitted to the nearest Federation star base, the Romulans were felled by their own hubris and avarice, and the beetles were delicious!

Here at Start Trekkin NY, we create full length, fully- improvised, brand new dramadies in the style and universe of the Original Star Trek series. If you've ever wished the adventures of Kirk, Spock and the rest of the gang could live on forever, without the tedium of watching Kirk, Spock, Bones, etc wade through another planet wide shortage of gum resin whilst getting rear ended by a ravenous Klingon Bird of Prey, then this is the group for you. We create ALL NEW characters and stories, on a new ship, for you at the drop of a dime, based on your suggestions.

Sounds dope, yeah?

Of course, it would behoove you to check out our official web site, start-trekkin.com, for up-to-date info about the cast and crew, the where and when of new performances, as well as video, radio plays, photos, the Red Shirt Diaries (in memory of those who've given their lives for Starfleet), interviews, and more. In fact, why don't you go on over and check it out right now! Don't worry, we'll wait....

This Space Blorg has been created so different members of the Start Trekkin NY crew can document their experiences on stage, as well as to be a haven for new STNY stuff that appears on the web, (video, photos, interviews, etc) and any thing else that we can't fit onto our website, but want to make available for you, the hungry-for-space-adventure-in-a-1960's-style-mini-skirt-and-pointy-
sideburns-kind-of-way interwebs surfer! Hang ten (to the tenth power), you power hungry demi god from Volcanus 3!

STNY re-enacting the "red shirt massacre" at the 2008 NY Comicon, Javitz Center, NYC

Let's kick our inaugural blorg off with some video from a recent performance in NYC at the Big Apple ComicCon in November, 2008. We were given 15 minutes to perform a STNY mini show, right after the James Bond panel, but before the parade of zombie super heroes. How'd we do?
YOU DECIDE!

Just as a side note, the suggestion for the name of the ship for this show was "the USS Woodstock" and the theme for the show was "recession."





This blorg was created by Phil aka Cmdr Artron. Anchors Away!

  1. why the odd colored shirts?

    Do any of the women appear scantily clad in green body paint?

    Are any of the women who dress in uniforms single and available?

    You should do something with two Kirks in a similar vein to Mirror Mirror and The Enemy Within.

  2. Adam - we've fixed up the oddness with the shirt colors and are much closer to Starfleet regulations now.

    As for the ladies, you'd have to ask them...I think some of 'em are and some of 'em aren't...much like most things in the universe. ;)
