Magical Lying Hour celebrates ten years of theatrical improv by stuffing as many past participants as we physically can into Coronation theater for one night of the absurdist, committed improv you've come to expect.You already know the basic deal: one actor, one improviser, the actor doesn't deviate from their script while the improvisers builds out a new world trying to stay within the bounds of the actor's lines.
We're bringing in some out of town heavy hitters including California's Riley Smith and Tommy Spears as well as hometown favorites Callina Anderson, Ruth McCleskey, and Autumn Clack in an unforgettable night that dives into three of our favorite alternate formats of Magical Lying Hour:
Magical Montage Hour: chaos ensues in this version of our classic show that more closely resembles a standard improv set. Actors and improvisers fly in and out of scenes with the alacrity of Ghengis Khan's hordes with the only rule being that at least one actor and at least on improviser need to be on the stage at all times.
Magical Groundhog Hour: Magical Lying Hour contains multitudes! Whereas we get to see the many permutations scenes can take during rehearsal you, the audience only gets to see one! Groundhog Hour shows the variability of the actors by playing the same scene three times with different sets of performers, and you see the wild turns the same script can take.
Magical La Ronde Hour: Our take on the classic improv form (and classic play by Arthur Schnitzler!) Five scenes from the same play with each actor becoming an improviser in the next scene but staying as the same character. See a story unfold bit by bit in this circular theatrical format.
It's going to be a spectacular night not to be repeated with over 25 performers it must be our biggest show for now and for all time.
