Overview:The Secret City was a television program designed to teach children how to draw, starring Mark Kistler as as the fictional ‘Commander Mark’ who led viewers through various drawing exercises in a sci-fi clubhouse setting. It was produced at Maryland Public Television through private funding by Children's Video Associates, and intended for broadcast via national PBS syndication. It also aired on TVOntario. The show was created by John Price & Mark Kistler, based on Bruce McIntyre's AVDP. Much of the series was edited live in-camera and was shot in a somewhat semi-scripted format. Other characters included Zebtron, MetaMan, and Cindy the Dragon. Often Special Guests would appear on the show to demonstrate other art forms or practical applications for drawing skills. While some recurring guests portrayed more fictionalized versions of 'themselves' - others appeared in more straight forward roles as Themselves in their capacity as real-life subject matter experts.
