Don’t Think Twice
Funny and insightful, DON’T THINK TWICE looks at a common experience that’s an uncommon subject for a film: failure. For eleven years, an improv group called The Commune has reigned as the big fish in the small pond of their New York improv theater. Then they get news that their theater is shutting down, and scouts from a hit TV show come to a performance looking for talent — but only two of the six cast members get the nod, upsetting the dynamic of the group and leaving its future in doubt. As he did in his acclaimed debut, SLEEPWALK WITH ME, writer/director/actor Mike Birbiglia (THIS AMERICAN LIFE) captures universal human experiences that happen in the lives of professional funny people. With a top-flight ensemble of comic actors including Keegan-Michael Key, Gillian Jacobs, Kate Micucci, Chris Gethard and Tami Sagher, DON’T THINK TWICE tells a nuanced story of friendship, aspiration and the pain and promise of change.
