An Exclusive Event By The Whangārei Repertory Society Inc.
A small group of actors have come together to give Oscar worthy performances!!! But there's a twist.... none of the actors have read the script before!!! And of course, we can not forget the fabulous hosts who will be throwing mini games, spinning wheels, mystery props, and audience scene suggestions from a hat at the troupe. Come and see this acting troupe do their best as they discover the plot, stage directions and lighting cues at the same time as you, the audience!!!!
Inspired by the improv and comedy TV shows 'Jeopardy!' and 'Make Some Noise', turned into something completely different.... Acting Blind!
