AmiosWest Presents SHOTZSF: SOCIALLY DISTANT NOIR

AmiosWest presents a Covid Era "theatrical" experience on FaceBook live via Zoom. Theater artists have got to keep creating! ShotzSF has the agility and talent to make the transition to this medium and they invite you to join us and see what can happen. Gathering artists from across the country (The Bay Area, Ashland & New York) ShotzSF: Socially Distant Noir, will be our 3rd installment of virtual Shotz.

The Virtual Process:

It's a beautiful bit of alchemy. They have altered our process for virtual Shotz: We precast the plays, give the playwrights 3 themes and 7 days to write, then directors meet with their casts to "stage" it over 7 days.

This ingredients:

1. Someone must breakdown (cry, yell, destroy something)

2. A clue must be discovered

3. Include the phrase "better than a deck with six aces"

The company will be taking donations www.amioswest.org so that they can help some of their hard hit community members.

The performance is MC'd by Christian Haines.
