THE HALL OF WINNERS

2006 - Kaci Beeler for Opening Night at The Burton Community Theatre
Synopsis: A group of improvisers learns and rehearses a community theatre-type scripted work as if it is to be performed just as it should. However, the improvisers are encouraged to take liberties during the performance controlling chaotic "accidents" and slips not previously planned or rehearsed that force the other actors to cover and or improvise their way back from the ensuing disparities and into the regularly planned show.

For regular mail please send your entry to:
