Wordless, Cinematic Improv That Actually Hits
Honestly, pulling off a full-length, completely silent improv show with a massive cast sounds like a recipe for chaos of misinterpretation, but this group is so dialed in it’s crazy. Every shift in the "movie" is communicated through pure body language and sharp physical instincts—you (and they) never lose track of the story or the stakes. Toss in a live score that hits every dramatic beat perfectly, and the whole thing feels insanely polished, kinetic, and the work of an ensemble that practices interpretation of each others movement and facial expressions to a T. Definitely worth the watch!

Never thought absurdity could be so scary…
DON’T BE SCARED is a wonderfully weird piece of clowning that taps heavily into pure uninhibited creativity. The duo’s razor sharp improv skills and expressive facial reactions keep keep the performance engaging while tying in audience interactions to drive the action. The shared dynamic between Stacy and Gunta keeps the chaos moving forward and I rate this as a truly fun, uniquely Fringe experience.
