Boldly going where many have gone before, William Shatner is bringing his one-man Broadway show “Shatner’s World” to Orange County in early 2013.

The 80-year-old actor, song stylist and travel-site pitchman will bring a  mix of storytelling and songs in a performance that acts as a comic autobiography. The show, which enjoyed a monthlong run at the Music Box Theatre in New York in February, played for one night at the Pantages in March as part of a national tour.
