Episode Synopsis

Episode 3: It's All Fun and Games Until Someone Loses a Tail In which the ship docks desert-side on planet Banoo, there's mayhem at the marketplace, and suspicions rise at the cop shop. Dr. Erin MacDonald and JG Hertzler guest star. This month's non-profit is Running to Places. Running to Places (or R2P, as it's usually known) brings middle and high school students together from across Tompkins County and beyond to make friends and develop critical life skills through the art of theatre. Every young person in grades 6-12 is invited to join R2P. Participation and tickets are 100% FREE. You can help by making a one-time donation – or you can make a bigger impact with a monthly gift when you become our newest R2Patron. https://www.runningtoplaces.org/ BLURB: Purser Sammi Love has achieved a quiet yet fulfilling life as the certified accountant aboard the not very important Mysterious CHIRP traversing the Caprimulgiform galaxy. After another typical day reconciling ledgers, Sammi stumbles upon a shocking discovery (hint: it's a dead body). There's more than meets the eye on this regular old boat ship carrying mid-level merchants, a group of traveling players, and a small handful of minor dignitaries barely worth mentioning. The stakes are get-lost-in-space high and the quirky crew are in way too deep. This laugh out loud sci-fi meets mystery will delight science experts, Star Wars fans, and diehard nerds alike as a sweet, charming, and marginally scientifically accurate portrayal of travel aboard a spaceship of accidental chaos. Featuring the voices of Sanya Simmons, Julienne Irons, and John G. Hertzler and creator Holly Adams in partnership with the sound design majors at Michigan Tech University, you can't miss a single minute of The Mysterious CHIRP (Sammi is counting on you).
