Rewriting is the theme of the 2/23/12 Free Fringe
Posted: February 22nd, 2012, 5:26 pm
Here's the crazy plan for this week's Free Fringe:
2/23/2011: The Eighth Show!
Alternate Ending, produced by Jason Oliver
This show takes stories, books, and movies that we all know and love, and indulges in a bit of wish fulfillment.
The improvisers will take suggestions for stories that are crying out to be rewritten. First, they’ll perform a mostly accurate version of the original ending, and then throw the script away to find out what could have happened.
These are the Director’s endings, the insane endings, the just endings, the “What should have happened” endings.
starring: Jason Oliver, Chuy Zarate, Arby Gonzales, Zac Grantham
Mixed Modes, produced by Paul Normandin
Allison is done with improv. She’s decided to return to the world of scripted theatre, and she’s dragging the rest of us along with her.
She’ll be performing the entire show with a script (only known to her), including all her lines and stage directions. Everyone else had better catch up, and make sense of whatever miscommunications happen along the way.
starring: Allison Asher, Ryan Hill, Jessica Arjet, Katherine Greco, Gloria Bankler, Paul Normandin
note: I made up the thing about Allison being done with improv. It made for good copy. -roy
Firth & Arjet
A wedding is the happiest day of a woman’s life. And the most stressful. It can be regretful, exhilarating, and/or traumatic. Firth&Arjet present Always a Bridesmaid…. One gets to be a bride, the other remains just a bridesmaid. These two women bring the audience into the scene, chatting and flirting and swapping secrets with their reception guests, as they discuss life, weddings, guys, and anything else that comes to mind — 100 percent made up on the spot. Wedded bliss or a wedded mess? With the audience’s help, the answer unfolds.
