The power has gone out. Panic has hit the streets. Throughout the world, humans are being beaten back by a new terror...Zombies.
This is the world of RISEN, inspired by the best-selling novel World War Z by Max Brooks, but improvised far past where it leaves off. Each week will show you the zombie apocalypse from a different geological perspective: the South African slums, the Paris underground, the upscale apartments of Manhattan.
Guest monologists will perform post-apocalyptic stories of survival, decimation, or worse. From there the all-star cast of improvisers will flesh out that part of the world before its too late. Through the panic of the outbreak, to the front lines of the Z War and back again, Risen will give a glimpse into the darkest parts of humanity imaginable.
Directed by Sarah Marie Curry and featuring Kareem Badr, Katie Dahm, Cat Drago, Kierstin Hettler, Clifton Highfield, Ryan Hill, Adam Mengesha, Heidi Penix, Trey Stoker, and Leng Wong, Special Make-Up Effects from Jason Vines and Tech Design from Bryan Curry.
