Two Man Polanski was an improv troupe that created improvised films in the personas of various directors.
Summary
The show had the form of a film panel, with three great directors (one of whom was Polanski) present. The two performers would trade off parts as the three directors, who would (based on audience suggestions) introduce their 'latest films'. Then the performers would dart out of the theater and improvise a scene for a camera posted there. The footage would stream live to a television set onstage.
They were often assisted by Brad Hawkins, who played the panel host.
History
The troupe had their first show at The Monday Night Mash on 6/20/11. It went on hiatus sometime in 2012.
