Description The apprehension of going on a blind date is suddenly compounded when a group of people – you the audience – gather to witness an improvised meeting between two complete strangers in a real life karaoke bar. The premise is simple – or so it seems. A woman sits alone waiting for her date to ar-rive, and that date is a different performer every night. The catch? The actress, AFI award winner Bojana Novakovic, has no idea who she is about to meet. Conceived by Bojana Novakovic and Mark Winter and directed live by Tanya Goldberg, the daringly devised encounters are devoid of scripts or rehearsals
