Zero Untitled are officially members of the 2024-2025 British Puppet Guild! What does this mean for us? Well, with the events and workshops that the Guild hosts, we will have access to their cache of expertise, experts, and networks of international puppeteers! So, expect to see an improvement to our puppetry endeavors in the next year.

Zero Untitled celebrates our 21st birthday today!
We have produced and performed films, plays, immersive theatre, children’s theatre, adaptations, performance art, music performances, experimental theatre, fire breathing showcases, puppetry, mime shows, improv comedy, improv drama, clowning, and more!
We have staged shows or filmed in the following countries: England, South Korea, Honduras, Mexico, Greece, Italy, and most recently, Ireland!
Our plays, novels, poetry, and experimental pieces have been published worldwide.
See you on the stage!
Sorry for the delay in content here on the main page. We have had a TON of shows in June and more coming in July. Let’s review some of the happenings thus far:
– Back on June 10th, we had our first ever “Backroom Karaoke” show featuring the voices of Andrea Lorin and Katherine Orozco-Verderber. They sang 90s and 2000s pop hits live on Facebook Live (a medium we hadn’t tried yet).
– Yesterday, June 16th, we celebrated Premature Punchline’s 10 year BIRTHDAY by doing a mini-show for a small crowd on Zoom. We performed a brand new game called “Art Show” in which PPers must quickly draw fantastic art pieces while the audience votes on the winners.
– Episodes of “Sonic Sway” will be released on YouTube. These five episodes will break up the show into the five different improvised techno songs. The first is viewable here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQ2vk68gRmI&t=167s
– “Groucho Max” is going on a seasonal hiatus until more episodes become developed. All previous episodes are still viewable on Youtube.
– Also, this site has been fickle so we are strongly considering being rid of zerountitled(dot)com and jump onto another website. So this may be one of the final posts until we push for the new website (where ever that may be at)
So, perhaps you will see more posts here or we may just stick with our social media outlets to get the word out about our shows.
In addition to new music exclusives (see article below), both the Zero Untitled and the Premature Punchline Facebook pages will be uploading tons of new and original memes (in addition to sharing some of our favorites found on the internet).
Primarily, the content will be targeting and making fun of US, so if you have seen our shows, you can certainly relate to the jokes. Check out both Facebook pages for daily updates.
Whew! Sorry for the delay in updating the website! We are back so expect to see several new updates in the next several weeks. What you’ve missed since November (our last post). We’ve spent a lot of time updating the Facebook page, so do check that out! Here’s what you’ve missed:
Zero Untitled has so many assorted ideas and bits, that we often run out of places to do/perform them. Thus, the brainchild project of Katherine Orozco-Verderber, #ZeroLife was born. Essentially, #ZeroLife (our 101st production) is the culmination of several of our bits, clips, outtakes, songs, and other assorted goodies that don’t quite fit in our lineup. Although the releases are still coming, here is what has been released thus far. All of these can been seen on the Zero Untitled Facebook page. So far, this is a summer project, but more projects will be released in the next few months.
Check them out here: https://www.facebook.com/Zero.Untitled/
ZERO-101.1 – Hamilton “Satisfied” cover (recreational cover song)
ZERO-101.2 – ZU Blooper reel
ZERO-101.3 – “Poodle Insults Verderber” (behind the scenes)
ZERO-101.4 – “I Wanna Try That!” (short film)
ZERO-101.5 – “Tonight, You Belong To Me” (live cover at Textual Overture)
ZERO-101.6 – “Middle School Dating Game” (live performance by PrePunch)
Our 99th, that’s right ninety ninth production is out! We are one show shy of our 100th. That, of course, does not include the myriad one acts we’ve done before which actually puts our show total to somewhere in the mid 160s.

But enough bragging, please enjoy the book trailer for co-Mainstage Director Katherine Orozco-Verderber’s “Gumball Badges” available now on Amazon.
Here is a link to the Facebook page that the film is currently viewable on: https://www.facebook.com/Zero.Untitled/

Creative Director Michael Verderber’s short essay “There is No Hobby: A Defense of Theatre” was published three months ago and was only recently discovered! The essay easily summarizes ZU’s mentality towards production and professionalism.
Read it here on “The Ghost Light” magazine’s website:

Zero Untitled Productions specializes in theatre staged in non-traditional spaces. Our versatile ethos allows the talent of our actors, writers, and directors to shine with great diversity. Rather than simply staging traditional plays, Zero Untitled writes, produces, and stages immersive theatre, unique music from a variety of genres, cultural, experimental, and environmental puppetry, and long and short form improv. All creative work will find an avenue of production, whether that is through our annual immersive horror Dark Tour, our open mic series Textual Overture, or even short films. We welcome everyone who is looking to embrace their creativity, no previous experience required.
If you ever need to reach Zero Untitled, feel free to reach out to us on our social media platforms (Facebook, Tik Tok, YouTube, Instagram, etc), but the fastest way is through our email, which is checked daily:

We hope to hear from you!
