Since 2012, The Dark Room has been at the forefront of interactive comedy, fusing improv, stand-up, crowd work, and gaming into a legendary, deranged Live-Action Videogame performed around the world! Now The Dark Room makes its NYC debut September 9 – 12 at Asylum NYC. The format is simple: You’re trapped in a video game! Players pick options off a screen and try not to die! If they win, they get money! If they fail, they die and win terrible prizes! At the end, everybody plays together! Hosted by improv comedy overlord Mr. John Robertson, The Dark Room is a high-octane cult experience that gets the whole crowd laughing and chanting along. “An hilarious, sadistic, participatory cult classic” – Neil Patrick Harris “NOT TO BE MISSED” – The Guardian “Hilarious game show” – The Independent “A Rocky Horror for nerds… reader, I howled” – The Telegraph Website: https://www.thejohnrobertson.com/thedarkroom/ SOCIAL MEDIA: https://www.instagram.com/mr_dark_room https://www.twitch.tv/robbotron https://www.youtube.com/robbotron https://www.facebook.com/johnrobertsoncomedy l Venue Information 🍸 Come Early, Stay Late – Our full cocktail bar and lounge opens at 5 PM and keeps the good vibes going for up to an hour after the final show. 👶 Age Matters – Guests must be at least 18 to attend.
