DW Appreciation Night- Salute to The First Doctor with Edge of Destruction
Details
In 2018, we'll be celebrating with a Doctor a month! In January, we'll be watching The Edge of Destruction (also referred to as Inside the Spaceship), the third serial of Doctor Who.
In the story, the Doctor (William Hartnell), his granddaughter Susan (Carole Ann Ford), and her teachers Ian Chesterton (William Russell) and Barbara Wright (Jacqueline Hill) are in the Doctor's time and space machine the TARDIS when it appears to be taken over by an outside force. The travellers begin acting strangely and turn against each other.
The serial is distinguished as a rare "bottle episode", in that the entire story is shot on a single set, with just the main cast. It's a short story, clocking in at under an hour, so we'll add a few goodies on at the end, in the form of two episodes of Red Dwarf- just because we can. ;-)
The preshow starts at 7:00 and the episodes begin screening at 7:30.
Come decked out in your Whovian finery and join us for a fantastic evening!
This is a private meeting for our members, but feel free to bring your friends. (The more, the merrier!)
If you RSVP and later find that you are unable to attend, please change your status so we can plan accordingly. Many of you have been doing this and it has helped tremendously, as we base our theater reservations on the number of people signed up to attend approximately one week prior to the showing.
