Performing Arts: Comedy Point Break LIVE!

  • Pointbreak_event_full

Point Break LIVE! is like the production of a traveling Shakespearean theatre troupe — only the royal court is a downtown theater and it's, like, set at the beach. The show reenacts the 1991 Keanu Reeves/Patrick Swayze movie amid bar stools, with histrionic, half-naked actors "skydiving" in jerry-rigged suspension systems, and "surfing" as the audience is sprayed with water pistols. And, in a nod to reality television, the role of FBI agent/undercover surfer Johnny Utah is played by a different audience member every night. Keanu hopefuls must prove their aptitude by auditioning with gems like "No, I say when the ride is over," and "Vaya con Dios, brah." Fingers crossed for a Roadhouse LIVE!
