Have you ever stayed up too late and watched a film so bad... that it turned out to be hilarious? Have you ever wanted to scream at the screen in a darkened theatre because the plot just took a terrible turn? Do you love Mystery Science Theater 3000? If you said yes to any of these, then you're in luck, because due to popular demand Mysterious Subtext Theatre 2K14 returns to The Rep stage on October 28th, 2014 at 7:30pm with the film Night of the Living Dead.
Local actors/improvisers Robin Fowler, Brian Paul, Knate Higgins (as Bunny Wonderland!) and Cullen Delangie take to the couch, in an interactive show in which they will provide live commentary for a Z-Grade film. The film in question for October 28th is the zombie film that started it all, George Romero's: Night of the Living Dead (1968). The film not only paved the way for Zombie films, but is arguably the most notorious film in the cannon of public domain films.
A Players Ring transplant, it was imperative to move the hilarity to The Rep with the success of Let's "B" Reel and The Red Light Series. "The first installment (back in June) was a huge success..." says Knate Higgins, the special series curator at The Rep and one of the commentators. "We've been itching to do another one, and now that all of our schedules allow it, we're ready to what we do best...make bad jokes."
