Gearhead
and the Realbot is a wacky, science fiction comedy homage to the
awesome, terrible, and terribly awesome science fiction films and
television shows, of the 1950s and 60s. The play follows Howard Batch,
or Gearhead as his comrades call him, the brainy space engineer who is
looking for a chance to prove his true worth to his condescending
comrades. He finally seizes his chance when the evil Professor Zee
infiltrates the Pomegranate Fizz, the space craft Gearhead works on,
along with his beautiful yet mysterious daughter, Marigold.
The
play contains all of your favorite characters from sci-fi classics,
from the inept and overly-masculine captain, to the shell-shocked first
mate, to the gentle but probably an axe murderer doctor, the doctors
sweet and annoying son…you know, the kid producers put on the show to
appeal to children but ends up appealing our carnal desire to see a
child run over by an Abrams tank. And of course the villain, whose
desire to take over the universe is rooted in the fact that…I don’t
know…it’s Wednesday?
