About
Improvisers play a live horror game where a Jenga tower decides whether five cryptids survive.
Chicago improvisers turn the tabletop horror game Dread into a live show, with a Jenga tower determining the characters’ fate. Five cryptids hiding among college students supply an especially well-timed Halloween premise, and the $20 ticket keeps the experiment approachable.
