Dropout's Improvised 'Movie Reunion' for a Fictional Film at Tribeca Festival
By
Jesse David Fox
Summary
Dropout comedy troupe performed an improvised reunion for a fictional movie called 'The Sound of the Squid' at the Vulture Festival during Tribeca Festival. The piece describes how four Dropout stars (including Brennan Lee Mulligan, Erika Ishii, and others) pretended to look back on a film that never existed, riffing on fake production stories, behind-the-scenes drama, and invented memories. The performance satirizes the convention of movie reunions at festivals, where casts gather to reminisce about real films.
