Sharpen your samurai sword as local improv troupe Paper Street Theatre bring their fully improvised play in the style of Pulp Fiction's Quentin Tarantino to this year�s Victoria Fringe Festival.

�Quentin Tarantino has an incredibly distinctive style - like the trunk shot.� explains director Dave Morris. �That�s what we�ll be capturing on stage when we improvise � a story that �feels� Tarantino.�

The show will be different every night � as it�s based on audience suggestions and created with the audience. But it�s sure to be packed with deep conversation about trivial things, heightened dramatic tension, highly stylized violence, grindhouse music and just enough violence to pay homage to this Reservoir Dog of a filmmaker.

With a cast of nine, in full costume, it�s one of the biggest shows in this year�s Fringe. The company cast includes Pick-of-the-Fringe Christina Patterson, Atomic Vaudeville veterans Byron Kjeldsen and Chris Gabel, and M-award-winning Missie Peters. Director and Pick-of-the-Fringe Dave Morris is a "master of his art" and his "approach to improv is sophisticated" - Times Colonist. ****
