Scripty Business: Halloween Horror Special
Location
About
Scripty Business is back for our second WIP showing.
It’s Spooptober and no one is safe… Especially so for the Scripty boys as they improvise the best Horror movie never-written!
Sharpen your pitchforks and load up on silver bullets – as it’s time for the SCRIPTY BUSINESS HALLOWEEN SPECIAL!
*costumes encouraged (prizes TBD)
Scripty Business is an improv comedy show about making up an entire movie from audience suggestions. The crowd provides three random words to build a movie from – along with a show wrecking curveball from the “Deck-of-Doom” courtesy of the Certifiably Unqualified Noble Ticketholders in the front row. Want to make our lives harder? Buy a Directors ticket to leave your mark on the show, directing the boys with character, setting, and plot decisions throughout the duration.
The show is all about making up BS at a breakneck speed and convincing you that it’s cinematic gold. It’s a race against the clock with just one hour to flesh out a full movie premise. Using audience suggestions, the boys cobble together a janky, ill-conceived logline that they are forced to follow for the rest of the movie. The opening shot is created on the spot, setting up the story and meticulously crafting a one of a kind movie title that is absolutely not just-the-first-thing-that-comes-into-our-heads. The directors get to throw a wrench into the works by contributing to the “Deck of Doom” to be drawn from, and deciding what direction the movie goes in from there.
Watch Murray and Welsh spin garbage into gold, and turn dumb suggestions in the greatest movie never made! Every show is unique, and no two shows can ever be the same. Everytime they come up with a fresh movie from fresh words and an even fresher curveball. Come back again and again to watch the boys suffer in a never-ending cycle of cinematic psychosis – and add to the pain by taking a Directors Chair and forcing some truly maddening suggestions into the mix.
It’s Chaos. It’s Risky. Its Scripty Business!
But don’t trust us, trust our guinea pigs:
“Scripty Business took me on the most gloriously unhinged, laugh-until-you-can't-breathe adventure, weaving audience suggestions into a completely improvised three-act story that somehow spiralled into comedic chaos while remaining brilliantly clever from start to finish.” Leeza von Alpen, what-do-you-know-it she’s a poet (30s).
“There's nothing more impressive than a show that feels like it's on the verge of going off the rails at all times. These boys have something magical.” - Justin McArthur, podcast connoisseur
“It was unhinged, hilarious, and heartwarming. My cheeks hurt from laughing so much.” - Alex, bewildered friend (30s).
*Costumes highly encouraged.
**Curveballs are courtesy of the Certifiably Unqualified Noble Ticketholders in the front row. Wanna be a Certifiably Unqualified Noble Ticketholder? Buy a Director’s ticket!
***No movie knowledge required. This isn’t a real movie. It can’t hurt you.
**** This is a preview / work-in-progress show in preparation for World Premiere at Adelaide Fringe 2027
