Enter a dimension of both shadow and substance. It’s the middle ground between science and superstition, between the pit of your fears and the summit of your mind, whose boundaries are that of imagination. It’s an area we call … The Improvised Twilight Zone. On four Saturday nights in October, BATS will create entirely new improvised episodes of the iconic, mind-bending television classic.
Things That Go "Bump"? "Ah-choo"? "Surprise"? "Moo"? You tell us! Things That Go “blank” in the Night is an improvised homage to horror anthology movies like Creepshow and the V/H/S series. Each night different stories unfold, all completely made up on the spot. What horrors await our performers? Come find out!
