What You'll Get
Viewing a movie with nothing but its originally intended dialogue is dangerously closed-minded. Today's side deal speaks outside the box with a fully improvised performance of Twisted Flicks from the creators of Jet City Improv, Wing-It Productions, and others for $5 (a $10 value). Witness the comedic re-dubbing of vintage B-movies projected onto a full-sized movie screen at The Historic University Theater. The band of improvites will restructure a film's existing dialogue, music, and sound effects with fits of wit inspired by the audience's suggestions. Today's Groupon gets you a ticket to one of Jet City Improv's Thursday- or Friday-night shows, held at 8 p.m. during the last week of each month.
The art of evolving old films into brand-new, living and breathing shows has been crafted through 12 years of extemporization experience under Jet City Improv's hilarious belt. Twisted Flicks' talented ensemble will share the rewarding laughs that come from spearing antiquated movies through the belly. You'll take part in a communal audience experience on a larger scale than the dorm-room bunny toss of college years past.
