Point Break Live!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Point Break Live!, is an original concept and adaptation by Jaime Keeling of the 1991 Keanu Reeves/Patrick Swayze extreme sports movie Point Break.[1] Sometimes credited as the first-ever "reality-play,"[citation needed] each features a new, unrehearsed actor in the protagonist role of "Keanu", reading their lines from cue-cards delivered by a production assistant.[1] The play premiered in a sold-out 2 month run co-directed by Jaime Keeling and Jamie Hook at Seattle's Northwest Film Forum[citation needed], and has since toured throughout the country, including extended runs at the Bryant-Lake Bowl in Minneapolis[2], and Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, New York.[3] The show played recently at the La Tea Theater in Manhattan, and is currently playing at Charlie O's Lounge in the Alexandria Hotel in downtown Los Angeles,[4] where much of the movie took place. Notable “Keanus" include: Justin Pierre from the band Motion City Soundtrack and Juli Crockett, lead singer of the Evangenitals.
