The Trek Files: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast 15-7 Majel's Vision - Lwaxana in the 24th Century, Revisited

<p class="p1">Earlier this season, we explored an unusual piece of Star Trek history: <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Tawny_Newsome_on_the_Lost_Lwaxana_Troi_Sitcom_Pitch_(podcast)"> a proposed sitcom starring Lwaxana Troi</a>. Now, the story takes an unexpected turn.</p> <p class="p1">When listeners helped identify one of the creators behind the never-produced project, <span class="s1">The Trek Files</span> tracked down writer and media innovator Jack Myers, who hadn't seen the pitch document in decades. Together, Larry and Jack revisit <span class="s1">Lwaxana in the 24th Century</span>, uncovering how the project came together, Majel Barrett Roddenberry's personal investment in the series, and why Hollywood never gave it a chance.</p> <p class="p1">Jack shares memories of Majel's determination, her frustrations with the industry's limitations, and her belief that Lwaxana could carry a series of her own. Looking back today, many of the pitch's ideas (from AI-powered homes and android assistants to questions of identity, family, and cultural division) feel surprisingly ahead of their time.</p> <p class="p1">It's a rare opportunity to hear the history behind an unproduced Star Trek project directly from one of the people who helped create it, while reflecting on the changing world of television and the legacy of Majel Barrett Roddenberry.<br /> <br /></p> <h3><span class="s1"><strong>Documents and Additional References</strong></span></h3> <ul> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Tawny_Newsome_on_the_Lost_Lwaxana_Troi_Sitcom_Pitch_(podcast)"> <span class="s1">Lwaxana in the 24th Century</span> pitch treatment</a> (circa 1992)</li> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Majel_Barrett_Roddenberry"><span class="s1"> Majel Barrett Roddenberry</span></a></li> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Lwaxana_Troi"><span class= "s1">Lwaxana Troi</span></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.jackmyers.com">Jack Myers</a> official site</li> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation"> <span class="s1">Star Trek: The Next Generation</span></a></li> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Star_Trek:_Deep_Space_Nine"><span class="s1"> Star Trek: Deep Space Nine</span></a></li> </ul>

The Trek Files: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast 15-6 How an Official Star Trek Stage Show Nearly Reached Broadway

<p class="p1">The story of <span class="s1">Star Trek</span>'s officially licensed 1994 stage production continues this week on <span class="s1">The Trek Files</span> as actor Adrian Cohen returns to share even more memories from <span class="s1">Star Trek: The Lost Voyage of the Enterprise</span>.</p> <p class="p1">Using a rare 1995 review from <span class= "s1">Total Theatre Magazine</span> as the document of the week, Adrian and Larry Nemecek dig deeper into the ambitious London production that somehow brought transporters, Klingons, time travel, and a full-scale Enterprise bridge to the live stage — all during the height of 1990s Trek mania.</p> <p class="p1">This time, Adrian shares stories from the chaotic opening night when the lighting system catastrophically crashed just hours before curtain, forcing the audience to wait until 9:30 PM for a performance that somehow still became a hit with fans. He also reflects on the enormous pressure of portraying Mr. Spock, the audience reaction to seeing the crew materialize live on stage, and the bittersweet realization that the production's planned Broadway future would never quite materialize.</p> <p class="p1">Along the way, the conversation uncovers surprising connections to Adrian's later move to America, the early career of producer John Gore, and how one strange theatrical experiment became an almost-forgotten chapter of Star Trek history.</p> <h3><span class="s1"><strong>Documents and Additional References</strong></span></h3> <ul> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/How_an_Official_Star_Trek_Stage_Show_Nearly_Reached_Broadway_(podcast)"> <span class="s1">Total Theatre Magazine</span> <span class="s2">review of</span> <span class="s1">Star Trek: The Lost Voyage of the Enterprise</span></a> <span class= "s2">(Spring 1995)</span></li> <li><span class="s1">Adrian Cohen on <a href= "https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0169170/">IMDB</a></span></li> <li><span class="s1">Reference: <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Leonard_Nimoy">Leonard Nimoy</a></span></li> <li><span class="s1">John Gore on <a href= "https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3687480/">IMDB</a></span></li> <li><span class="s1">John Gore on <a href= "https://www.broadwayworld.com/people/John-Gore/">BroadwayWorld</a></span></li> </ul> <p>The Trek Files <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/The_Trek_Files#Season_15">Season 15 on Memory Alpha</a></p> <p>All episodes and documents: <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/The_Trek_Files?so=search">The Trek Files on Memory Alpha</a></p> <p>Visit the <a href="https://larrynemecek.com/">Trekland site</a> for behind-the-scenes access and exclusive merchandise.</p> <p>The conversation continues on <a href= "http://patreon.com/missionlog">Discord</a> with live chats and the Roddenberry Podcasts community! <a href= "http://patreon.com/missionlog">Join today</a>!</p>

The Trek Files: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast 15-5 Inside the 1994 UK Star Trek Stage Show

<p class="p1">Before there was streaming Trek or "immersive experiences," there was something almost unbelievable: an officially licensed <span class="s1">Star Trek</span> stage play in London in 1994.</p> <p class="p1">This week on <span class="s1">The Trek Files</span>, Larry Nemecek welcomes actor Adrian Cohen (credited at the time as Adrian Neil), who played Mr. Spock in the ambitious theatrical production mounted during the height of the <span class="s1">Star Trek: The Next Generation</span> era. Using a clipping from the <span class="s1">London Evening Standard</span> as the document of the week, Adrian recounts the surreal experience of stepping onto a full-scale Enterprise bridge in front of packed houses of passionate British Trek fans.</p> <p class="p1">What began as a skeptical audition ("I can't play Spock!") quickly evolved into a whirlwind production featuring transporter effects, Klingons, time travel, elaborate costume changes, and even an Enterprise flying out over the audience. Adrian and Larry explore how producer John Gore approached the material with both reverence and playful theatricality, creating something that celebrated <span class="s1">Star Trek</span> rather than parodying it.</p> <p class="p1">Along the way, Adrian shares memories of discovering just how intense Trek fandom could be, the pressure of channeling Leonard Nimoy's iconic presence, and the unexpectedly emotional reaction from audiences seeing <span class="s1">Star Trek</span> brought to life on stage for the very first time.</p> <p class="p1">This week, The Trek Files points a spotlight at a little-known corner of improbable yet completely inevitable Trek history.</p> <h3><span class="s1"><strong>Documents and Additional References</strong></span></h3> <ul> <li><a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Inside_the_1994_UK_Star_Trek_Stage_Show_(podcast)"> <span class="s1">London Evening Standard</span></a> clipping covering the 1994 <span class="s1">Star Trek</span> stage production</li> <li><span class="s1">Reference: Adrian Cohen on <a href= "https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0169170/">IMDB</a></span></li> <li><span class="s1">Reference: <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Leonard_Nimoy">Leonard Nimoy</a></span></li> <li><span class="s1">John Gore on <a href= "https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3687480/">IMDB</a></span></li> <li><span class="s1">John Gore on <a href= "https://www.broadwayworld.com/people/John-Gore/">BoradwayWorld</a></span></li> </ul> <p>The Trek Files <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/The_Trek_Files#Season_15">Season 15 on Memory Alpha</a></p> <p>All episodes and documents: <a href= "https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/The_Trek_Files?so=search">The Trek Files on Memory Alpha</a></p> <p>Visit the <a href="https://larrynemecek.com/">Trekland site</a> for behind-the-scenes access and exclusive merchandise.</p> <p>The conversation continues on <a href= "http://patreon.com/missionlog">Discord</a> with live chats and the Roddenberry Podcasts community! <a href= "http://patreon.com/missionlog">Join today</a>!</p>
