False Matters

Sure, you may have seen c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate, but we'd wager you've never seen live improv in the style of Philip K. Dick.

False Matters, created by Shannon McCormick and the popculture mavens of Gnap! Theatre Projects, is a series of shows that may well do for improvisational performance what a little LSD-25 does for a person's cerebrospinal fluid.

Imagine yourself trapped in a classic PKD situation. Like, maybe, just possibly, one of those hippies you're trying to buy drugs from is actually 1) an android 2) from the CIA? Like, maybe there's a sentient slime mold trying to devour your left hand because it figures that's the polite thing to do? Like, maybe time itself shatters like a dropped mirror the day after you sleep with your wife's secretly Christian best friend who looks like a young Linda Ronstadt?

How lucky for you, citizen, that you get to merely watch such things from the comfort of the new seats in SVT's studio theatre. That you get to sit there, beneath the air-conditioning ductwork that so vividly resembles Reed Richards' Fantasti-Car, while being entertained by the Dickian dilemmas and dramedies of Craig Kotfas, Courtney Hopkin, Jon Bolden, Kareem Badr, Kevin Miller, Kristin Firth, Kyle Traughber, Liz Brammer, Marc Majcher, Ruby Willmann, and the aforementioned Shannon McCormick.

We recommend this. We recommend this.

That'll be five poscreds, please.
