It's OK to Laugh

Posted By on Fri, Jan 27, 2012 at 12:25 PM

Winter blues got you down? Let the Blue Door Theatre cheer you up with two improv-tastic shows this weekend.

Microbiography finds past Blue Door players Pat Thomas, Gretchen Oyster and Mark Robbins, better known as Freedom Association, on stage with special guests KXLY4 Chief Meteorologist Kris Crocker and Good Morning Northwest Anchor Robyn Nance. Crocker and Nance will tell true stories that inspire Freedom Association's wacky improvisation.

If movie parodies are your thing, then Citizen Dwayne: Movies that Thankfully Never Got Made! is the show for you. Join host and past Blue Door player Luke Barats, of Barats and Bereta Production fame, as he asks audience members for the name of a movie, as well as a major change to the plot. Then it's up to the Blue Door players to recreate the movie with this new plot twist.

Catch Microbiography tonight, Fri, Jan. 27, at 10 pm. Tickets are $10. This show may not be suitable for all ages. You can check out Citizen Dwayne: Movies that Thankfully Never Got Made! tomorrow, Sat, Jan. 28, at 9 pm. Tickets are $7 with reservations and $9 at the door. This show is not suitable for the kiddos.

Both shows will be at the Blue Door Theatre, located at 815 W. Garland Ave. Call 747-7045 or visit bluedoortheatre.com for more information.
