The Room Returns (With Director Q&A) at the Rio Theatre

What happens when great actors collide with what some consider the worst script ever written? Tommy Wiseau’s original THE ROOM (2003) infamously burned through $6 million and months of shooting with no-name actors. This reimagining flips the myth on its head. Filmed in under 12 hours, on virtually no budget, with Bob Odenkirk (“Better Call Saul”), Bella Heathcote (“The Neon Demon”), Kate Siegel (“Hush)”, Greg Sestero (the original “The Room”), executive producer Mike Flanagan (“The Haunting of Hill House”), and directed by newcomer Brando Crawford.
With no rehearsal and only teleprompters to guide them, the cast embraced the chaos with Shakespearean gravity, transforming cinematic disaster into unpredictable spectacle… All for charity.
