Pat and Mary Save Their Marriage/ IRTE Presents: The Scary
Theatre 54 @ Shetler Studios
New York, NY





Pat and Mary Save Their Marriage - Pat and Mary try to do the unthinkable - stay married. They do this by strictly adhering to the help that historical couples like John and Abigail Adams, Antony and Cleopatra and Beyonce and Jay Z offer them. Every show they ask the audience for a typical marital gripe and with a little help from their "friends" they try to solve the problem and Save Their Marriage.

IRTE Presents: THE SCARY, Improvised Stephen King (New York City) Watch in terror as the twisted members of IRTE craft your suggestions into a story worthy of the KING of Horror, himself! Dare you face... THE SCARY?!! THE SCARY, directed by Pat Shay (PIT Faculty, iO and Second City Touring Companies), is a long-form improvised comedy that borrows common themes and tropes from Stephen King's most popular works and, based on audience suggestions, creates an entirely new and FUNNY LIVE horror show.

IRTE PRESENTS: THE SCARY, IMPROVISED STEPHEN KING
Your dead pet stands by a shining dark tower in Maine...Watch in terror as the twisted members of IRTE craft your suggestions into a story worthy of the KING of Horror, himself! Dare you face... THE SCARY?!!
THE SCARY, directed by Pat Shay (PIT Faculty, iO and Second City Touring Companies), is a long-form improvised comedy that borrows common themes and tropes from Stephen King's most popular works and, based on audience suggestions, creates an entirely new and FUNNY LIVE horror show. IRTE uses simple costumes, props and strong characters for a very theatrical, often silly, narrative-driven improvised show.
IRTE, the Improvisational Repertory Theatre Ensemble, is BACK with its third season of improvised shows. After another highly successful season of full houses, stand-out fest appearances and glowing praise, the NYC-based ensemble of comedy actors and writers returns with its own unique brand of original themed, character-driven improvisational shows performed in rep.
Most recently, IRTE performed at the 15th and 16th Anniversary Del Close Marathons, the 2014 NYC Improv Festival, the 2013 Tampa Improv Festival, the 2013 Unscripted New York Improvised Theatre and Film Festival, the 2013 New Orleans Comedy Arts Festival and the 2012 Portland Improv Festival. In 2013, IRTE enjoyed a residency at Gotham City Improv with occasional performances at the People's Improv Theatre. IRTE is currently in residence at The Producers Club in the heart of the New York City theatre district. Individual members' credits include performances at Upright Citizens Brigade, the Groundlings, the People's Improv Theatre, Gotham City Improv and the Magnet, as well as professional off-Broadway and regional theater and feature film productions (The Public Theater, The Kennedy Center, NY Theater Workshop).

A central story of "Ghost Light Sonata," a Doctor of Medicine, marionette, Professor Wiley looks back on his life in the moment of his death, and feels sorrow that he was never as kind to his wife as he could have been; realizing his ambition had undermined what love they shared. The recently deceased's journey through the afterlife; an unfamiliar world where there is as much to learn at death, than there was to know in life. 

The Dixon Place Lounge is open before, during, and after the show.
Proceeds directly support Dixon Place's artists and mission.
