The dark and seedy underbelly of Southern California in the 1940’s and 50’s is the setting for Film Noir UnScripted. Join Impro Theatre for a night of shadowy tales featuring villains, dangerous dames and a trench-coated detective, all performed without a clue – except for your suggestions. Inspired by such authors as James M. Cain, Dashiell Hammett and La Jolla’s own Raymond Chandler, Impro Theatre cuts to the funny bone in this hard-boiled, completely improvised evening of seduction and murder.
