Zero Untitled’s 44th production, “The Unraveling” was performed October 20-21 in the Blue Room.  The two performances were very different: the first night had a crowd of only 22 people and they remained generally quiet throughout the production.  The second night’s crowd of 47 were laughing at practically everything – even things that weren’t supposed to be that funny.   The actors decided to make some last minute changes to the “commercials” of the show, altering the “Vlasic Packles” and adding a “Real American Zeroes” commercial making fun of Verderber.  For more info, see the show page.

If you were at Kingsville’s annual ArtWalk this year, you might have noticed some charmingly creepy individuals running about!  Zero Untitled’s latest Happening (in the ongoing series) was “When Mimes Invade”!  See the show page for more pics.

After a stellar turnout for interest in the forthcoming “Madness in Wonderland“, our cast is officially up!  Go to the main page to see the details.

Our next project went officially underway last week (with rehearsals); the show is called “Anti-Gone Wrong: An Adaptation of an Adaptation of Adaptation of Sophocles’s Adaptation of Antigone” or just “Anti-Gone Wrong” for short.

The text, written by Barry Berryhill based on an idea by Michael Verderber, is a random goofball “speedy” version of the epic tragedy by Sophocles.  The original “Antigone” is based on the familial struggle between newly crowned ruler of Thebes, Creon, with his niece Antigone over whether they should give her brother (who happened to be a major threat to Thebes) a proper burial.

“Anti-Gone Wrong” is a street-theatre style play-within-a-play  featuring two bumbling actors trying their best (which is actually their worst) at staging “Antigone.”

Performance dates are June 28 and 29 at the Blue Room in Fore Hall at Texas A&M Univ- Kingsville.  FREE admission.  See the “Anti-Gone Wrong” page for more information.

Last night, Zero Untitled’s 39th production, “Heart and Stole” premiered at the Blue Room at Texas A&M University- Kingsville.  We had a packed house  with standing room only and the crowd seemed to be very pleased with the comic antics of the cast.

The show continues tonight (Thurs, May 6) and Tuesday, May 11 at 7:30 at the Blue Room in Sam Fore Hall.  Admission is only $1 – come early, we can only accept the first 40 patrons!

Also, don’t forget to follow us on Twitter!  @ZeroUntitled

The full-length comedy “Heart and Stole” (written by Michael Verderber and adapted to the stage by Gabriel Ruiz)  is Zero Untitled’s next major project.

The play follows one night with Chris, Benji, Ellen and Ronnie; four college students set out to stalk Chris’s ex-girlfriend.  Through their endeavors, they discover more than they bargained for,  more about themselves, and that Benji can be a real whiner.

The show is slated for a late April – early May production.  See the main page for cast details.
