It’s the Spooky Season and you’re ready to feel a cold wind on your face, a shiver up your spine, the crunch of fallen leaves under your feet. what better to give you thrills, chills and snuggly feelings than a Tim Burton-inspired improv show!

We’ve been studying Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas and more Tim Burton films to get our cast and crew ready for The Recently Deceased, improv inspired by Tim Burton!

The Recently Deceased is an improvised play about life after death inspired by the eccentric, ghoulish humor of Tim Burton. We’ll create a gothic fantasy adventure filled with wacky, outlandish characters and dark, offbeat worlds. 

You’ll see the misunderstood loner, the spooky children, the charming, silly and slightly scary antagonists of Tim Burton films all created in front of your eyes using suggestions from the audience as fuel for our creepy stories!
