A Lifetime of Regret
A Lifetime of Regret is a drinking game/staged reading of some of the best of the worst to ever grace your television screen: Lifetime Channel movies. Each performance is a completely different script brought to life by a talented team of improvisors who have already started one drink ahead of their audience. Yes, it’s technically scripted – but the experience is nothing that anyone can truly prepare for.
OUR NEXT FILM SELECTION IS:
TBA!
Don’t worry, you don’t have to drink to have fun and watch a funny show.
NOTE: Outside beverages not allowed in the theatre. No one under 18 admitted. Adult content and language. Really adult. We mean it.
