Five Fifths Performer: The Mess
A veteran improv group, including Rita Boersma, Mike Fotis, Jake Scott, Molly Ritchie, and James Rone, brings gleeful, inane nonsense backed by hearts of gold. You can regularly find them performing and making people laugh on select Saturdays at Strike Theater, and you've probably seen individual members in various Minnesota Fringe shows over the years. They were also part of 2023's Five Fifths of Back to the Future.
What can you expect from their fifth? The Mess will be exploring what the camera wasn't pointing at during their segment of the movie. We all agree that 9 to 5 is one of the great movie comedies of all time, so what better way to pay tribute as comedians of significantly lesser stature than to careen recklessly away from the source material? We'll be making most of it up as we go, because a) we are improvisers and b) we cannot be trusted to learn lines properly.
See The Mess and four other Twin Cities theater artists and companies take the stage for Five Fifths of 9 to 5 for what is sure to be a wacky interpretation of the 1980 comedy. Proceeds from the event benefit Minnesota Fringe. Get tickets now at minnesotafringe.org
