Dice of Destiny
June 5—July 17
Fridays @ 10 p.m.
Runtime: approx. 1 hour
Dice of Destiny has the energy and speed of a short form show, the sensibility of a long form show, and the unpredictability of a gambler’s luck!
Dice of Destiny is dynamic, off-the-cuff storytelling determined by a roll of the dice! Our improvisers endeavor to weave a cohesive narrative with an ensemble cast, but the fates keep losing the plot!
The narrative presence of three teams of improvisers–and the characters they embody–are determined by the numbers on a six-sided dice. With each roll, the fates conspire to thwart the heroes (and our improvisers) by eliminating them at random throughout the story! No trope, payoff, character arc, or narrative thread is safe from the conniving probability of the dice—but the dice may also choose to revive whomever they’ve eliminated at random to save the day. Can our improvisers triumph over chaos to create a storytelling masterpiece, or will their tale devolve into total M. Night Shyamalan bullshit? No matter what, you always win—Dice of Destiny is sure to send you into fits of laughter either way!
Dice of Destiny was originally created by Toronto-based PROJECTproject (rest in peace.) But we love it, so we’re doin’ it here, too!
