David Collins of the Umbilical Brothers was emphatic, “PULP is sensational! Enchanting, surprising, adventurous. The characters are so strong and it’s such a full experience, you feel like you’ve jumped right into a fantastic dime-store novel. It’s so much more than impro. I wish there was a new word to describe this art form when it gets raised to this level. An awe-inspiring mix of genre acting and spontaneous theatre.”
Pulp Fiction novels inspired Quentin Tarantino! They spawned countless films and TV shows! They thrilled the popular imagination for decades! They were cheap fiction magazines from the 1920’s to the 50’s and mass-market paperbacks from the 50’s and 60’s, and they are best remembered for their sensational cover art.
PULP blends improvisation and script, bringing to life these shocking and hilarious tales from the past for the audience’s interactive and voyeuristic pleasure. Slick production values and a killer script meet the lightning comic minds of Sydney’s best improvising performers.
Act 1 sees the cast in a series of shorter stories exploring Weird Science Fiction, Sexually repressed English Dramas from the 1940’s, Dark brooding violent Westerns and a Savage Jungle Adventure from Australian Pulp Writers of the 1950’s including a terrifying 14 foot tall monster from hell.
Act 2 presents a full-blown, hard-boiled Film Noir style Detective story in the vein of Raymond Chandler or Mickey Spillane. Femme Fatale, mysterious foreigner.
Starring: David Callan, Daniel Cordeaux, Rebecca DeUnamuno, Monique Dykstra, Murray Fahey, Matthew Foster, John Knowles, Marko Mustac, Josie O’Reilly, Lisa Ricketts, Nigel Sutton, and Jon Williams. Created and directed by Marko Mustac and Produced by Impro Australia’s Artistic Director John Knowles, PULP takes its lead from a description of Tarantino’s groundbreaking films, by combining “discipline and control with sheer wild-ass joy”.
It’s fast, it’s funny, it’s IMPRO as you’ve never seen it before and we are so confident of this show’s appeal, we are offering a money-back guarantee. If after watching PULP, you can honestly say that you were unimpressed and did not laugh, we’ll refund your ticket price and the Producer will write you a personalised apology for wasting your time. This show is that good.
