THREE CAN KEEP A SECRET Gets Nomination and a Special Return Show

A hit of the Hollywood Fringe, the Theatre Unleashed show Three Can Keep a Secret is coming back to Studio/Stage for ONE NIGHT ONLY on July 29 at 8 p.m., and this time we put a twist...on the twist!

In Three Can Keep a Secret, what was supposed to be an easy score turns into nuthin' but a friggin' mess. Whack the mark. Stage the scene. Take the money. Retire to Cabo. That's how it was supposed to go down. But for poor wannabe gangsters Moose and Sonny, a really bad night is only just beginning. Three Can Keep A Secret, a new play by Gregory Crafts (Friends Like These, Super Sidekick: The Musical) is a darkly funny and slightly twisted interactive crime thriller where the audience chooses how the story proceeds while the anti-heroes attempt to literally get away with murder. With multiple decision points throughout the story for audiences to vote on, there's no telling which way the show will go.

BUT, for its farewell performance, the cast and crew are going to present and perform all possible outcomes! While the audience will still decide what happens to Sonny and Moose and the cast of characters that continually botch up their plans, they will also have the opportunity to see what would have happened if they made the other choice and how it all ties together. As for how that's all going to play out, well, that's a surprise.

"What I love about this play is that the world it exists in is this weird super serious yet super funny limbo that I find really fun," said Director JacoB Smith. "It's a comedy of errors but the characters understandably take their situations so seriously, it almost becomes a farce. The audience choice aspect of it was just the cherry on top for me and its going to appeal to a lot of people. And now we're going to get a chance to present the whole picture so the audience can see they really did decide the fate of the characters."

Three Can Keep a Secret is one of two Theatre Unleashed shows that are coming back for encore performances. The Spidey Project also comes back for four shows July 14, 15, 21 and 22 after a sold out run at Hollywood Fringe.
