  STAR DREK: THE GENERATION AFTER THAT
  Herbst Theatre [Map]
  Sun., November 15
  Lamplighters Music Theatre’s 44th Annual Champagne Gala & Auction.

  Beam up to the funniest fundraiser in town, as San Francisco’s award-winning LAMPLIGHTERS warp drive into the 25th Century with their annual original spoof. After sustaining engine damage to the Enterprise in an asteroid storm, Captain Quirk and his intrepid crew must transport to a strange planet in search of diatonic crystals. The crew find themselves in the middle of a never-ending musical war between factions and – to make matters worse – a strange portal keeps sucking people out to who-knows-where.

  Can they save the planet and the ship by ending the war, or will the dreaded BORG assimilate the Savoyards and wipe out all traces of their culture?

  Come early to browse the many fabulous items in the silent auction offering one-of-a-kind items. After the full-length show, the audience is invited to join the cast and crew in the green room for a complimentary champagne reception.

  Tickets: 415-392-4400 or cityboxoffice.com

  $50-$95 including senior/student discounts
