By:

Escape your madhouse. Indulge your dark side. Let Shadowbox Live tickle your funny bone with Screamers, a brand new sketch comedy and rock 'n' roll show opening on August 27th at 503 S. Front Street!

Fall at Shadowbox Live means wacky, wonderful sketch comedy and no-holds-barred rock 'n' roll! Screamers is guaranteed to be two hours of non-stop thrills and chills that pokes fun at all of those haunting, scary, and creepy delights!

Sketches from Screamers include:

Black Jesus - Jesus hears the plea of virtuous virgin at a Halloween party, but can he convince the party goers that he is, in fact, Jesus?

Camping Without a Net - It's a classic horror story when six teens go camping in the woods only to discover ... they have no Wi-fi!!!!

Dance Like There's No Tornado - Shadowbox Live Head Writer Jimmy Mak chronicles a real life event with this sketch. Seriously, you can't make this stuff up.

Disney Earth - Aliens have come to investigate Earth, but are mightily confused when they land at Disneyworld.

Dr. Mystery - Hunchback to the Future - Dr. Mystery, that bumbling hero, is back to "save the day" again, and this time he's messing with the time-space continuum.

Dracula Sucks - Dracula awakens after centuries of sleep only to discover ensnaring victims is a bit harder than it used to be.

Dream Screamer - Rob is spending his first night with girlfriend Liz, but this girl has some WEIRD sleep habits.

Exorcising with Friends - Seth calls in two priests to exorcise the demon from his daughter, but the Catholic Fathers and this particular demon go way back!

Happy Haunting - Gretchen refuses to believe her apartment is haunted, but her friendly ghosts are "dead" set on protecting her.

Killer Party - Amanda desperately wants her Halloween party to be perfect! But can she persevere when an unexpected visitor arrives?

Monster B Gone - Have no fear! This new product will repel monsters ... of all kinds.

World War Spazoids - The three lovable nerds return with a plan to save the world from a zombie invasion, and they get some help from a surprising source.
