Star Wars On The New York Subway

The Guys over at Improv Anywhere decided to re-create a scene from Star Wars on the New York subway, in full costume, and as you will see in the video below it certainly keeps the passengers entertained, also make sure you check out the book Princess Leia is reading.

For our latest mission, we staged a reenactment of the first Princess Leia / Darth Vader scene from Star Wars on a New York City subway car. The white walls and sliding doors on the train reminded us of the rebel ship from the movie, and we thought it would be fun to see how people would react to a surprise appearance by the iconic characters. We spread out the actors along the train line, staging it so they would enter the right car at the right time.
