A fully improvised zombie apocalypse where the audience helps decide who survives, based on George A. Romero's 'Night of the Living Dead'.
Night of the Living Theater is running at Unexpected Productions on Sunday nights throughout October, with shows at 7:30 PM. It's a fully improvised zombie apocalypse, and the audience helps decide who survives.
The show takes its cue from George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead, the film the venue credits with changing horror forever. From there, the improvisers build a horror comedy on the spot, fueled by zombie cinema, audience suggestions, and the chaos of fighting for your life. The crowd gets to weigh in on who makes it through and what, if anything, is left of them when the dust settles.
It's staged at Unexpected Productions, a Seattle improv theater that does a fair bit more than this one show. They run the city's only open mic dedicated to two-person improv teams, as well as Loose Cannons, which they bill as the most unpredictable improv at Pike Place Market. They also hold classes and workshops and stage Theatresports—a Keith Johnstone trademark licensed by the International Theatresports Institute—drawing on local talent and Seattle-area donors to keep the doors open.
