THE SCARY, Improvised Stephen King

Prepare yourself for an unforgettable night of terror, laughter, and the unexpected when IRTE (Improvisational Repertory Theatre Ensemble) presents THE SCARY – an improvised comedy inspired by the spine-chilling works of Stephen King. From the twisted minds of IRTE, experience a terrifyingly hilarious adventure that combines the supernatural, suspense, and horror in a way you’ve never seen before.

THE SCARY takes your suggestions and transforms them into a uniquely improvised, brand-new horror story, worthy of the King of Horror himself. Each night, the team of talented improvisers will spin a web of dark, hilarious chaos, drawing on everything from creepy Maine landscapes to haunted pets and telekinetic teens, ensuring that each performance is as unpredictable as it is entertaining. Dare you face... THE SCARY?
