Neutrino Project
Jul 16th
This August Curious Comedy will be holding a cutting edge improvised movie. Three groups of actors, each with a camera person and a tape runner, take to the streets to film, shoot, and “edit” a movie while an audience watches the projected tapes as they’re run to the theater. Sound complicated? It is, but that’s the fun of it.
