The Writers Guild Foundation is staging a live reading of "The Man Trap," the very first episode of Star Trek to ever air, as part of its "Retro Reads" series. Noah Wyle, who won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor for his work as Dr. Robby, will read the role of Captain James T. Kirk, the part William Shatner originated in 1966. He is joined by Katherine LaNasa, Fiona Dourif, Taylor Dearden, Shabana Azeez and Ayesha Harris, each stepping into a member of the Enterprise crew.
Why a Trek read? Star Trek premiered on NBCin 1966, the same year the Writers Guild Foundation was founded, so both are marking their 60th anniversary this year. As Nerds That Geek noted, Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry served on the Foundation's board in its early years, which makes his first episode a fitting script to pull off the shelf.

For a cast currently shooting Season 3 and fresh off the most-nominated season of any show this Emmy cycle, a night of salt vampires and Starfleet melodrama is a generous way to spend an evening. The reading gives longtime Trek fans and new Pitt devotees a rare shared front-row seat, and it sends every dollar toward the writers who make shows like both of them possible.
