The Trial: An Improvised Court Experience

  • Eris Mainstage 167 Graham Avenue Brooklyn, NY, 11206 United States (map)

Eris Mainstage

Finally, an improv show that will make you want to go to jury duty! “The Trial” improvises a tense courtroom trial right before your eyes — from dramatic opening statements to thrilling verdict.

The first half of the show is a “Spokane” form in the courtroom; we flash back-and-forth in time from the courtroom to the events pertinent to the trial, all the while “seeing” testimony, witnesses, and evidence along the way.

The second half of the show is a Monoscene taking place during deliberations as a jury decides the fate of the accused.

Can you handle the truth???
