Six rebels fight for freedom from an evil sci-fi dystopian government, but two in their midst are secretly traitors. Can they win back our freedoms or will suspicion and betrayal tear them apart from within.
Inspired by The Resistance board game. The traitors are so secret, even their fellow castmates don't know who is sabotaging their covert missions. Audience can guess along from their seats or watch knowing all along. Despite the stakes, this improv comedy is filled with cyber-hackers, sentient traffic robots, cyborg sports-stars, and serious laughs.
