3, 2, 1 Kill! returns to the Alamo Ritz

The most overrated aspect of mainstream film is production quality—3, 2, 1 Kill! proved that in November when the improvised movie event was scripted, filmed, and edited live at the Alamo Ritz (see our interview with 3, 2, 1 Kill!’s Arthur Simone and Kaci Beeler).

Luckily enough for the film snobs among us—this script is so indie that it doesn’t even exist—3, 2, 1 Kill! returns to the Alamo Ritz this Sunday for another round of seat-of-its-pants storytelling. Members of local improv troupes Coldtowne, The Frank Mills, and Parallelogramophonograph will weave three improvised storylines together from a single suggestion from the audience.

The format involves three teams; two of them film segments at locations around the Ritz while the third stays on stage to fill the gaps between acts. Intrigued? You should be. Confused? Think of it this way: it’s improv comedy at a theater that serves beer and food. What more could you ask for?

This Sunday only at the Alamo Ritz. Tickets just $9 ($7 student/senior) online.
