Kenneth,
John de Lancie, best known for his role as "Q" in the Star Trek franchise, will appear live in Sacramento for one night only performing, “The Dover Panda Trial".
This original radio play, written by Mr. de Lancie and Kristen Tregar, is a reenactment of the 2005 trial in which evangelicals took over the Dover, PA school board and tried to replace the approved biology textbook with Intelligent Design (Creationism).
Their actions resulted in a lawsuit, and this is the exciting story about that trial.
