Zero Untitled celebrates our 21st birthday today!

We have produced and performed films, plays, immersive theatre, children’s theatre, adaptations, performance art, music performances, experimental theatre, fire breathing showcases, puppetry, mime shows, improv comedy, improv drama, clowning, and more!

We have staged shows or filmed in the following countries: England, South Korea, Honduras, Mexico, Greece, Italy, and most recently, Ireland!

Our plays, novels, poetry, and experimental pieces have been published worldwide.

See you on the stage!

Premature Punchline’s three hour long epic of a show at The Novel Blend Bookstore during the city Wine Walk event was a sip of success! The show was performed on Saturday, February 25, from 6:00 until the event ended at 9:00. Featured comedians and comediennes were veterans Daniel Rodriguez, Michael Verderber, Katherine Orozco-Verderber, and Diego Trevino; and introducing newbies Sally Guzman, Heather Martinez, Ray Martinez, and Bailey Goodrich.

Apologies for the delay in updating the main site here; we are considering closing this page down as it is more efficient to update our stuff via our social media.

Nevertheless, here are the slew if things that HAVE occurred lately!

1. “Church of Winter” audio play featuring a cast split between Italy and the US. Not the same as the live cast, so do watch it here:

2. Another music video for Down Chamber for his track “Eyes In The Trees”. It follows the Dark Tour horror formula we have mastered in our stage productions. Enter if you dare…

3. DIGITAL TEXTUAL OVERTURE! As promised, our coffee shop variety show was published today, September 18, amd features a slew of familiar faces! Watch it now:

Sorry for the delay in content here on the main page. We have had a TON of shows in June and more coming in July. Let’s review some of the happenings thus far:

– Back on June 10th, we had our first ever “Backroom Karaoke” show featuring the voices of Andrea Lorin and Katherine Orozco-Verderber. They sang 90s and 2000s pop hits live on Facebook Live (a medium we hadn’t tried yet).
– Yesterday, June 16th, we celebrated Premature Punchline’s 10 year BIRTHDAY by doing a mini-show for a small crowd on Zoom. We performed a brand new game called “Art Show” in which PPers must quickly draw fantastic art pieces while the audience votes on the winners.

– Episodes of “Sonic Sway” will be released on YouTube. These five episodes will break up the show into the five different improvised techno songs. The first is viewable here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQ2vk68gRmI&t=167s

– “Groucho Max” is going on a seasonal hiatus until more episodes become developed. All previous episodes are still viewable on Youtube.

– Also, this site has been fickle so we are strongly considering being rid of zerountitled(dot)com and jump onto another website. So this may be one of the final posts until we push for the new website (where ever that may be at)

So, perhaps you will see more posts here or we may just stick with our social media outlets to get the word out about our shows.

R. Trujillo as The Press and M. Allen as The Guilty

The trouble makers at Premature Punchline have CLEARLY gotten themselves into some trouble and will be forced to perform in an upcoming Zoom production of PRESS CONFERENCE to try to clear their name! Their crime…? Well, that is up to YOU (the audience) to tell US what they did! The Zoom room will open at 7:30 on Friday, February the 26th. This will be a FREE performance and accessed here:

The encore will be a couple of rounds of the new game CHOP SHOP. Two games for the price of NONE.

The purple-clad punks of Premature Punchline put poogether (too many Ps?), put TOGETHER a new video featuring their new game, Chop Shop. Catch episode #4 here:

“Remains of Neverland” cast getting ready

We have some Zoom-style plays coming up and we need ACTORS and DIRECTORS! If you are interested in getting involved (and are not already a member of our Active group), then LIKE or COMMENT your interest on our Facebook or email us here: zero_untitled_films@yahoo.com  and let us know what you’re interested in! We need a headcount. Yes, you can live on the other side of the world and STILL be involved. You just need decent internet.

Those purple-clad punks in Premature Punchline are back at it again, with a new episode of “The Premature Punchline Online Show” with the latest installment – “Alphabet” (a classic improv game). Watch it here:

With the world as it is, the folks in our improv comedy troupe, Premature Punchline, have decided to film our rehearsals and bits as part of the newly created “The Premature Punchline Online Show”!

As part of the slew of new Zero Untitled content scheduled for release (including poetry videos, interviews, etc), the PPOS will feature different PrePunch comedians/comediennes (both old and new) performing from the safety of their own homes and studios. This first video stars veterans Poodle, Drea Lorin, and Michael Verderber, alongside group newbie Mack Attack and special guest Katherine Orozco-Verderber.

The video is available on our YouTube account and above. Update: the SECOND episode is available below!

This performance features Dawn, Julio, and Poodle playing “Alphabet Movie”!

Enjoy our latest and weirdest film to date – THE MATTRESS, a comedic puppetry spoof of “The Matrix” film. Written by Erik Helsing and directed by Michael Verderber, this is the first premiered project in our OBJECT-ionable Puppetry series. The newly formed series, explores utilizing multiple forms of puppetry using “found” objects instead of using traditionally constructed puppets.

Principal editing was done by Amber Badger (previously assisted in “Zellen”) and features the voice work of veterans Robert Trujillo, Josue Villarreal, and Justin Minter. Puppeteers were Andrea Lorin, Michael Verderber, and Katherine Orozco-Verderber.
