If you thought meeting the real William Shatner required going to a Star Trek Convention or ComicCon, think again. At nearly 81 years young, Shatner is laying his life on the line in a new one-man show, Shatner's World: We Just Live In It. Enjoying a puzzling, controversial, and prolific career in the spotlight, the Canadian-born man who has boldly gone where no man has gone before, charms the audience over the course of 100 minutes, with video clips and humor-injected anecdotes from his childhood, days in live television, and experience as a horse owner. A yes man to a fault, the Emmy Award-winning, once Shakespearean actor who spoke his way through "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show reveals his humanity in a witty, self-effacing manner. For fans or those just wondering what makes the man tick, Shatner's well-played negotiation is worth the trip.

Auditorium Theatre says…

Go where no man has gone before. Literally. Television and movie superstar William Shatner takes audiences on a voyage through his life and career, from Shakespearean stage actor, to internationally known icon and raconteur, known as much for his unique persona, as for his expansive body of work. Join him as he invites us into Shatner's World. With signature storytelling, video clips, and an inimitable musical style, William Shatner brings to stage the one man by whom we are all compared, himself. Please note: $300 VIP Ticket includes a special Meet & Greet.
