When The Intergalactic Nemesis Live-Action Graphic Novel premiered in 2010, more than 2,100 people turned out. Now, in its inaugural touring season, the production hits 24 venues around the country, including UH Mānoa. UH Mānoa’s Outreach College presents The Intergalactic Nemesis Live-Action Graphic Novel Book One: Target Earth on Saturday, January 12, 2013, at 7:30 p.m. at Kennedy Theatre, for one night only.
 
This one-of-a-kind all-ages show is not to be missed. The premise is simple: a period adventure story featuring Pulitzer-winning reporter Molly Sloan, her intrepid assistant Timmy Mendez, and a mysterious librarian named Ben Wilcott as they face the most serious threat Earth has ever known: an impending invasion of sludge monsters from the planet Zygon.

The telling is what makes the experience of The Intergalactic Nemesis so incredibly unique: while three actors, one Foley artist, and one keyboardist perform all the voices, sound effects and music, more than 1,000 hand-drawn, full-color, high-resolution, blow-your-mind comic-book images blast from the screen, all performed LIVE.
 
“In 20 years of directing and producing plays, I’ve never seen an audience respond so positively,” said project creator Jason Neulander.
