William Shatner bringing his Broadway show to the Paramount on Wednesday

Space is not the final frontier for William Shatner.

These days, the veteran "Star Trek" actor is contemplating the mysteries of life and death, rolling his exploration into "Shatner's World: We Just Live In It." He's bringing his one-man Broadway show to the Paramount Theatre in Cedar Rapids on Jan. 22, and he couldn't be happier to share it with some of his favorite people: Eastern Iowans.

"I love Cedar Rapids -- I've been there in the past, and I'm looking forward to coming in and being there," Shatner, 82, says by phone from his office in Los Angeles. "The one-man show I'm going to present there is full of laughter and a tear or two. There's been such a reaction to the show -- standing ovations almost everywhere -- and I'm so glad to be coming to your town and your theater, and to be able to bring the show to you."
