Over the past 4 weeks, SWITCH/BOARD has invited four celebrity guests to plug some of the specialty cocktails designed for our show by @grey_mkb and @iamnotmk_ !

With one more show to go, who do you think we will have next? Find out this Monday, October 19 at Off the Hook: Calls From the Beyond! Grab your tickets now while there's still room, because this is the last SWITCH/BOARD of the year.

Off The Hook: Calls From the Beyond

1950s cautionary tale AND MUSICAL, in which a phone call from another dimension unravels the reality of the receiver.

Followed by a screening of: Twilight Zone double feature– Night Call and Long Distance Call.

What is SWITCH/BOARD? It's an improvised screenplay, about telephones, over the radio... In person!

A pair of comedy mixologists, Nicole Odell & Sean Owens find themselves in a world of old-timey movies, in which the answer to every problem goes through the SWITCH/BOARD! The incomparable improv escapades of Odell and Owens are once again underscored by on-the-spot composer Brendan Getzell. Presented as live radio theatre, these vocal acrobats will populate an entire imaginary screenplay, week after week while Getzell composes the score spontaneously!

Switchboard <> Today was a tribute to the 80's Slasher Movies 🔪🔪🔪 Absolutely brilliant! Being a GREAT fan of that period, it was simply stunning. @nicole_odell_88 & @seanowensplaywright offered a "one of a kind" version of these slashers. LOVED IT!

Can you guess the plot of last week's SWITCH/BOARD from these amazing on the spot storyboards by Jeff Lance? That's right, the screenplay is improvised, and Jeff can draw as fast as Nicole Odell and Sean Owens can talk!

There are only two more installments of SWITCH/BOARD left for the year, and they are sure to be still of (imaginary) blood!

Tomorrow, Monday October 12 we will bring you Call From Camp Bloodlake, and 80's camp slasher! 7pm at Stookey's Blue Room. Afterwards we will screen When a Stranger Calls. Grab your tickets now at the link in our bio! (Or else 🔪)
