“What you know you can’t explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life, that there’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.” Sound familiar? Yes, it’s because you’ve realized you need more comedy in your life. TOMORROW begin your journey with two nights of SHOT4SHOT movie recreations. Friday, the gang takes on the sci-fi classic The Matrix and Saturday, the adventure comedy A Night’s Tale. With Shot4Shot it doesn’t just stop at the recreation, there’s a drinking game to take things up a level, and, more often than not, the movies go a off-script (to everyone’s satisfaction).

Do you think Chaucer would ever have imagined the world would be going through another plague in which a group of artists would be recreating a film with nods to his works and be told through 1s and 0s? Food for thought. Don’t miss the show!
