1940's SoCo Comes to Life in FILM NOIR UNSCRIPTED

By:

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.

Show is 90 minutes . To buy tickets call (858) 481-1055 or northcoastrep.org. Ticket are $25 regular and $20 for Subscribers. North Coast Repertory Theatre is located at 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach.
