Longtime personal friend and friend of The Wheezers, Kurt Misar (40+ years) has been up to something of note (yes, pun intended). Kurt is a talented composer and musician. He's been buried knee-deep in writing a new musical theatre project the past few years. He's just announced that the World Premiere of his latest creation, will be Friday, April 23rd, 2010 at The Embers Avenue, 110 NW Broadway in Portland, OR
Best described as a parody of 60s Franco-Italian sci-fi films, WILD SPACE A GO GO! embodies 60's Playboy Sex-In-Cinema and the swinging 60's sexual revolution in a delightfully provocative sexual identity farce and musical play. Tickets go on sale March 1st at Brown Paper Tickets.
Featuring a cast of ten, with seven wild and sexy space women and three mixed-up Earth men, they're joined by a live, five member rock band, multi-media video and animation, stunning lighting, fog and laser effects and a full bar - serving pub food and a huge assortment of drinks - this fully costumed, choreographed, two act musical is certainly going to be unlike any musical you have ever seen or heard.

Very kind of you all to post this note. I'd like to add, on a personal and heart-felt note to all Wheezers, that this was also a show that Wheezer Neil Sterett was helping me with - he being an endless source of sci-fi images and more.
He lovingly shared similar 50s and 60s sci-fi flicks with us and had a hand in helping define what eventually became our logo - using sci-fi icons to replace letters in the title. It was with great sadness that our project lost him - just as it was gearing up and we needed his help the most.
He will be missed and ever in my heart and mind as the project moves forward. Hail to Wheezers like him!
