Some time ago, someone asked about a Dr Who play coming to Chicago. It is called "The New Adventures of Doctor Who: The Inheritors of Time", and will star Patrick Troughton in the role of the Doctor. The play is suppose to premiere in Chicago in Spring 1985. At the TARDIS 21 con in Chicago during Thanksgiving weekend, Patrick Troughton did a reading from part of the play. I have not heard anything more since that time. Has anyone else? Also, does anyone have the words to "Doctor Who, He Had a Farm"? I thought someone was going to post it, but I never saw it.

In fact, Dr. Who is no stranger to plays. In 1965, there was a play made called, "Curse of the Daleks," which did not feature the Doctor. In 1974, there was a play performed called, "Dr. Who and the Seven Keys to Doomsday." This had Jon Pertwee regenerate into Trevor Martin instead of Baker and fight the Daleks for possession of the Seven Keys... (Sound vaguely familiar?) This was written by Terrance Dicks, who reused several scenes in his "Brain of Morbius." Finally, recently, "Recall UNIT: the feedback mystery." was performed in England, featuring Yates and Benton in their original battle against evil (In the familiar shape of the Master.)
