Comedy Troupe To Stage 'Z Is For ... Zombie' At Lesher in Walnut Creek

Improv comedy company Synergy Theater is invading the Lesher Center for the Arts, at 1601 Civic Drive, Walnut Creek, with its annual improvised horror spoof, Z is for…Zombie: An Improvised Zombie Apocalypse! on Friday, October 16 and Saturday, October 17, 2015 at 8:15 pm.

This marks the Lafayette-based company’s first performance in the high-profile regional arts center.

“In Z is for…Zombie,” explains Synergy Theater’s Artistic Director, Kenn Adams, “some of the characters are regular townsfolk, and others are shape-shifting zombies from space who have killed, eaten, and taken the form of their unsuspecting victims. When the story begins, nobody knows who is still human and who has been turned into a zombie--not even the cast!”

“It’s really a kick,” says long-time company member Lynn Shields, “because the cast and the audience are all playing the game at the same time: trying to figure out who’s telling the truth and who’s really a zombie.”

Synergy Theater brings Z is for…Zombie: An Improvised Zombie Apocalypse! to the Lesher Center for the Arts on October 16 and 17, at 8:15 pm and then returns to their regular schedule of rotating improv comedy shows in Lafayette where they perform at Lamorinda Music on the third weekend of every month. Will they venture into Walnut Creek again? Well, you know those zombies. They’re hard to keep down.
