“Whispers” Rehearsal leaks

Here are some photos from a recent rehearsal of the forthcoming Dark Tour “Whispers”! Seen are Aubrey, Cricket, and Kazi.

Two surprise music video releases

Under the direction of Daniel Rodriquez, Zero Untitled proudly presents two new music videos promoting the recent release of the Down Chamber and Infernal Symphony split record “Mea Tulpa”, on Dungeon Squid Productions.

Infernal Symphony’s “Mind Palace Manifestation” is a reimaged edit using footage from the classic 1922 horror masterpiece “Nosferatu”. Down Chamber’s video runs the gamut of a psychological horror piece. Both videos are available on Youtube or viewable on this post.

Another Hatter’s Premature Punchline show

Well, another Premature Punchline show has taken a bow! Or a spill, as seen above. As part of the downtown Kingsville “Sip & Shop” event, Hatters Beverage Company hosted a PrePunch improv comedy show in a slightly different format! Instead of our usual set of games, the audience “ordered” a “drink” (our renamed improv games) and then we performed two rounds of the game.

Performing that night featured our newbie Liz Pedraza (shown above frozen in “Frozen Latte” with Michael), hosted by Julio Martinez, and long-time performers Cricket, Aubrey Gracia, Katherine Orozco-Verderber, Ray Martinez, Daniel Rodriguez, and Diego Trevino. We even had one audience volunteer Jayden Morales hop on stage and do a round of “French Press Conference”!

Coming up in Zero Untitled action

We have a slew of different things happening over the next few months including: HoRrOR theatre, hilarious improv comedy, wEiRd puppetry, short films, and more! So, we will be having some outdoor rehearsals this coming week in an effort to get more folks involved!

The outdoor rehearsal schedule will be 7:00 pm:
Aug 20th – near Javelina Dining Hall
Aug 21st – near Mesquite Village West

If any of the above interest you, come watch OR participate! Then let’s not forget the improv comedy show by Premature Punchline on the 28th at Hatters Beverage Company (all ages).
