Coldtowne Theatre presents: 3,2,1,KILL!

Rated NR

Location: Alamo Downtown

Award-winning Austin comedy troupe ColdTowne has assembled an all-star cast of award-winning local comedians and videographers to bring forth their award-winning production, 3, 2, 1 Kill! to the award winning Alamo Drafthouse screen. If you're counting, that's exactly four awards.

Out in Hollywood, they take months - even years - just to make one movie. The improve maestros of Austin's own Coldtowne Theater only need ten minutes. 3, 2, 1 KILL is like stage improv with improvements, because instead of a bunch of troupes coming up on the stage and attempting to convince you that they're actually in far away lands, the troupes involved in these shows start out in the theater, where they'll all hear the same audience suggestions to inspire their long form improvised stories. But immediately after that, all of the performers will run out of the theater, into downtown Austin, armed only with their wits, their performer chops, and a video camera. One team will stay behind to start performing a scene on the stage, then all of the other teams will turn in short, segmented scenes as the night goes on. The different scenes will build into different stories, and the different narratives from all the groups will continually build on each other, until right at the end, when... Well, you can never really say exactly what will happen with an improv show. But I've been out to see Coldtowne many, many times, and I can tell you that at the end of this show, my absolute favorite format they perform in, you'll be thrilled, surprised, and slightly, embarrassingly... aroused.
