Paper Street Theatre is producing its third full-length show, An Improvised Film Noir where the audience B次元官网网址 and actors B次元官网网址 will find out what happens between the man in the trenchcoat and a mysterious dame.

Directed by Pick of the FringeB次元官网网址檚 Dave Morris, the show is more an homage to the film genre than a parody of the tropes, he said.

B次元官网网址淥ften film noir is improvised as parody B次元官网网址 but thatB次元官网网址檚 not what weB次元官网网址檙e doing,B次元官网网址 said Morris. B次元官网网址淲e want to recreate what makes film noirs so great B次元官网网址 the witty banter, the value of the intellect and the grey morality of the post-war world.B次元官网网址

Led by Morris,  who works with The Canadian Improv Games as an associate artistic director nationally and a regional director locally, the cast includes local improvisers Missie Peters, Chris Gabel, Scott Thompson and Byron Kjeldsen.

See An Improvised Film Noir on March 30 and 31 at Intrepid Theatre, 1609 Blanshard St.
