Hitch-Cocktails

We’re back, and look at that cast! Prompted by the suggestion of a fear unique to a member of our audience (like anime, the color blue, or socks) watch our ensemble craft a fully improvised thriller inspired by the work of Alfred Hitchcock. There’s just one extra bit, any time one of our performers is offered a drink by their scene parter, they have until the end of the scene to finish it. Things can get messy! There’s even a drinking game for our daring audience (if you’re so inclined) - catch us at 10PM tonight at The Annoyance!
