Keanu Reeves Saves the Universe (NYC)

The Sci-Fi Parody Adventure proudly holds the record for the LARGEST AUDIENCES EVER at The Peoples Improv Theater, mainly a result of the theater’s fire-code policies being established immediately after our run.
The show was remounted, due to popular demand, at Horse Trade’s The Red Room the following year.
