June 27 — The Fate of Cinema Is in Your Hands

Our cast will create a completely improvised action‑movie franchise live onstage, and you’re the one shaping the universe. You name the franchise. You invent the unstoppable hero. You give them the whispered‑before‑the‑explosion catchphrase.

And then… the sequels begin.

Director Lenton Lees returns to squeeze every last over‑the‑top sequel out of your ideas. Maybe the hero suddenly saves the world on a tropical island. Maybe the gritty action saga becomes a heartfelt musical for absolutely no reason. Maybe we go to space. Maybe there’s an evil twin. Maybe everything can be solved by “hacking the mainframe.” Maybe a celebrity cameo appears out of nowhere.None of it happens without you.

Expect impossible stunts, dramatic sunglasses removal, suspiciously large explosions, physics‑defying car chases, villains with mysterious accents, emotional flashbacks, unnecessary training montages, and at least one performer nervously laughing because they have no idea what comes next.
