Spring Show | July 18-20 2008
GUEST: Jonathan Frakes
Jonathan Frakes plays Commander William Riker, the U.S.S. Enterprise’s XO. “Riker’s job is to provide Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) with the most efficiently-run ship and the best prepared crew he can,” Jonathan explains. “As a result, he maintains a more military bearing than the other characters, despite the fact that salutes and other military protocol no longer exist in the 24th century.”
We’re so unbelievably excited to have him booked for our Spring show coming up in May. We’ll also be talking to him for an upcoming podcast.
GUEST: Kavan Smith
As an actor in Vancouver, Smith has made a career of performing in many of the United States’ most appreciated sci-fi series. He performed five different roles in five episodes of the acclaimed series The Outer Limits. Soon after he was playing the American Pilot in Brian DePalma’s Mission To Mars. He then portrayed the role of “Major Lorne” on SG1 and the role was brought back on Stargate: Atlantis three years later. He now recurs on the series.
