Understudies Improv Troupe!
Understudies Improv Troupe!

Memorial Union - Fredric March Play Circle
FREE!
The Understudies Improv Troupe mainly focuses on short-form improv, which includes individual scenes and games lasting no longer than a few minutes. This type is so successful because it tends to lay out the comedic elements of a situation almost immediately. It really brings out the personality of each group member, while allowing the audience to join in on the fun also!

December 3 | USA, 2007 | 84 min | Jennifer Venditti | DVD | Unrated
Jennifer Venditti's debut film is a provocative coming-of-age story, an odyssey into the soul of an American teenager. Following Billy as he bicycles through the quiet streets of small town Maine, we watch him traverse the frustrating gap between imagination and reality, grappling with isolation and first-time young love. By turns exhilarating and disturbing, we see the world from the intimate view of an expressive and seemingly fearless outsider.

USA, 2009 | 112 min | Neill Blomkamp | 35mm | R

In 1990, a massive star ship bearing a bedraggled alien population, nicknamed "The Prawns," appeared over Johannesburg, South Africa. Twenty years later, the initial welcome by the human population has faded. The refugee camp where the aliens were located has deteriorated into a militarized ghetto called District 9, where they are confined and exploited in squalor. In 2010, the munitions corporation, Multi-National United, is contracted to forcibly evict the population with operative Wikus van der Merwe in charge. In this operation, Wikus is exposed to a strange alien chemical and must rely on the help of his only two new 'Prawn' friends. (adaped from imdb)
