For years, if you wanted to see the Kingsland, Georgia sets being used to film the legendary fan series STAR TREK CONTINUES, you needed to either be working on the production itself or else a very special VIP. But now STC has wrapped filming, and the sets have been purchased by super-fan RAY TESI. And Ray is opening the Stage 9 Studios sets for the first time ever to the fans to come, look at, take pictures of, and even talk to some of the cast and production crew of STC itself!
The event is happening in a week and a half, and is open to any fan. No tickets are needed, and admission is FREE! You can get a behind-the-scenes look at Stage 9 Studios‘ starship sets, walk through the corridors, visit engineering, the transporter room, sickbay, the captain’s quarters, the iconic bridge, and more!
The guests include
- VIC MIGNOGNA – STC‘s Captain Kirk
- CHRIS DOOHAN – STC‘s Scotty (and son of actor James Doohan)
- LISA HANSELL – STC producer and make-up supervisor
- GINGER HOLLEY – STC costumer and designer
- SARAI DUENAS – The actress who played Miramanee’s child in STC‘s episode “The White Iris”
- JOE HALDEMAN – Nebula and Hugo Award-winning author

- KAVITA MAHARAJ – Artist best known for her acrylic medium Spock paintings

FRIDAY, OCT 19 – 2:00 PM-7:00 PM
SATURDAY, OCT 20 – 9:00 AM-7:00 PM
SUNDAY, OCT 21 – 9:00 AM-6:00 PM
