Who: Andĕl Sudik & Rebecca MacMillan What: The Library of Forgotten Books Where: Unity 1 When: 5:30pm - Friday the 8th of May Breathe in. What do you smell? Paper. Dust. Leather bindings. Welcome to The Library of Forgotten Books - a place of ritual, where abandoned and neglected books are offered up and transformed into fleeting stories. In this dreamlike space of reverence and mischief, The Librarians examine forgotten volumes, channel their contents, and decide their fate: to be enshrined on the shelves of memory… or consigned to oblivion. A mysterious, funny and moving improvised performance created by internationally acclaimed improvisers Anděl Sudik (The Second City, Boom Chicago) and Rebecca MacMillan (The Maydays, Closer Each Day), the show blends laughter, wonder, and the quiet thrill of transgression. Audience members are invited to bring a book they’re ready to part with forever; these offerings may shape the night — or be ceremonially altered in the name of improv. What will be remembered? And what will be forgotten?
