# Event Details

- **Event Name**: EXCAVATOR - A Staged Reading
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 08:45 pm
- **Event Description**: Get ready for an out-of-this-world adventure for all ages! Join us for a live staged reading of the first three issues of Excavator, the family friendly sci-fi fantasy epic co-created by Nick Arganbright and Nil Carmona.


Originally made possible by a grant from the Greater Columbus Arts Council and fueled by the incredible support of our Kickstarter backers, the Excavator comic series is now being brought to life in a staged reading like a classic radio play! Plus, every ticket holder will receive a FREE complimentary copy of Excavator #3 so you can take home a piece of the story with you!  (Looking to catch up? Copies of Issues #1 and #2 will also be available for purchase at the event to complete your collection.)

Boonford T. Doggle (Boone to his friends) is just a novice excavator trying to save the family farm. But now Boone is on the run from strange creatures, bounty hunters, and more when he unearths a mysterious alien artifact. Alongside his protectors—the sword-wielding Ozzie and blaster-toting Opal—Boone must brave the perils of a dangerous world to reach the City of Waimog.

Experience the first three issues of the comic detailing Boone's journey, brought to life like an old-time radio serial, complete with a narrator, striking character performances, and all the fun you can handle!

Note for Families: This production is recommended for ages 7+. It features "radio-style" action and adventure themes (think Star Wars or Indiana Jones) that are exciting for kids while remaining thoughtful and engaging for adults.
