Los Angeles – October 10, 2017 – In celebration of Saban’s Power Rangers’ 25th Anniversary, the iconic Rangers are set to morph onto stages around North America in an epic live show based on one of the longest running series in television history. Power Rangers Live will be an interactive, mixed media stage production for the whole family with endless action-packed stunts and epic martial arts. Featuring themes from Power Rangers Ninja Steel, six ordinary teens will morph into the Power Rangers to help save cities and the world from an alien threat! Kicking off in Phoenix, AZ on February 17, 2018, the tour will visit an additional 50 North American cities in Spring 2018, including Los Angeles and Toronto.

Today, Power Rangers is one of the longest running kids live-action series in television history. The series, currently in its 24th season with Power Rangers Ninja Steel, and subsequent movies, including 2017’s feature film with Lionsgate, follows the adventures of a group of ordinary teens who morph into superheroes and save the world from evil. Power Rangers currently airs in 150 markets around the world and is translated into numerous languages.

“Power Rangers Live incorporates state of the art video and technology, jaw dropping live action stunts and amazing martial arts to make for a first class theater experience for Ranger fans of all ages,” says Jonathan Shank, Executive Producer, Red Light Management.

“Power Rangers Live, in partnership with Red Light Management and CAA, will be a celebration of Saban’s Power Rangers’ 25th Anniversary. Fans across the franchise’s 25 year history, from those who grew up with the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to our fans currently watching Power Rangers Ninja Steel, will connect with this action-packed, live Power Rangers experience,” said Janet Hsu, CEO at Saban Brands.

Anime Expo® Goes GO! GO! POWER RANGERS!!!

Nation’s Largest Anime and Manga Convention Announces Power Ranger Reunion and Panel

Anaheim, California (April 17, 2009) ‹ Blast off with Anime Expo® and members of the Mighty Morphin’ Power Ranger dynasty as they storm into the Los Angeles Convention Center for one of the biggest Ranger Reunions to date at the nation¹s largest anime and manga convention held July 2-5, 2009. More information can be found on the website http://anime-expo.org.

Rangers in attendance include:

* Karan Ashley – Aisha, the Mighty Morphin’ Yellow Power Ranger
* Steve Cardenas – Rocky, the Mighty Morphin’ Red Power Ranger
* Walter Jones – Zack, the Mighty Morphin’ Black Power Ranger
* Catherine Sutherland – Kat, the Mighty Morphin’ Pink Power Ranger
* Johnny Yong Bosch – Adam, the Mighty Morphin’ Black Power Ranger
* Robert Axelrod – Lord Zedd

In addition to attending Anime Expo® 2009, the Mighty Morphin’ Power Ranger Reunion event will include a panel as well as a booth in the Anime Expo® Exhibit Hall where fans can meet, take pictures with and obtain autograph head shots of their favorite convention attending Rangers!

This’ll be the first time that the “replacements” in MMPR will reunite in one place, being Karan, Johnny, Steve, and Catherine. Adding Walter to the mix is the icing on the cake! And since this will be in Los Angeles, no doubt other alums will stop by. Dan Southworth is notorious for showing up to ranger events, so I’d bet money that he’s be there. Tony Oliver is usually there with Bang Zoom! Entertainment. Patricia Ja Lee has been to AX in the past, so she may be there as well.

Don’t hold your breath for anyone showing up unexpectedly or spontaneously who isn’t living in the LA area. Trust me.
