One of Magnet Theater's signature shows, 4TRACK is improv comedy with a jolt. It's 40 minutes of non-stop fun. This show is wild, raucous and whiplash hilarious. From a single suggestion, 4TRACK delivers huge characters, high stakes, bold risks and big energy to make a show that is daring, truthful, brutal and funny.

TUES. JULY 8th

9:30pm
STRAY PRESENTS: THREAD


After getting a physical, tangible object from the audience, Stray follows this object as though a camera were trained on it, catching the action that happens around it. Whether the object stays in one place or moves through a variety of different people and places, you get to be along for the ride.

Featuring: Jill Farris, Wendy Herlich, Kristy Kershaw, Stefan Schick

FACTORY FACTORY

Two young lovers sneak into the boys locker room for a forbidden kiss. Morris, a retiring janitor, inadvisably tries out for the school play in the theater. The sound of a LOT of broken glass rings out from the parking lot. The roar of a yeti is heard coming from the direction of the gym.

Tracers, an improv form developed in Chicago and brought to New York, allows the audience to see all of those locations over the same time period, and how they affect one another. When you fire a bullet into the next room, where does it go? With Tracers, the mystery is revealed. Come see for yourself in the form's debut at the Magnet Theater, by Factory Factory!

FEATURING
Jon Bander, Kevin Cragg, Karsten Cross, Luke Franklin, Megan Gray, Leslie Korein, Garrett Palm, and Morgan Phillips
