DECEMBER 6, 2022 - Portal 47 is gearing up to celebrate its 7th-anniversary OPEN HOUSE put on by the legendary Larrys Nemecek's Trekland. The very special guest will be Ira Steven Behr, showrunner and executive producer for Star Trek: Deep Spane Nine. The official blurb for the event is as follows.  

Once a year we throw open the Portal 47 gates to everyone for a very special guest — and a free taste of what the Portal backstage deep-diving is all about, several times every month.  And this year I’m honored to have the man himself, DS9 showrunner/ Executive Producer IRA STEVEN BEHR as our guest.

Come early at 6 pm PT / 9 pm ET for a sample open-mic “Ask Dr. Trek” Roundtable, meet new Trekfolks and Ask Me Anything … and maybe win a door prize!

And then: my conversation with IRA at 7 pm, and you in the chat. I’m going to hone in on the corners of Ira’s Trek life that perhaps haven’t been covered by books and documentaries — and Trek colleagues like Michael Piller and Peter Alan Fields, for starters. Submit questions early, or live!

If you’ve ever wanted to ask the showrunner why they did what they did, now’s the chance.  Get your stories ready. The event will be WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 2022 AT 6:00 PM PST. For more details and the register that you’re going, set sail through the Celestial Temple’s wormhole to Facebook.
