The Pajama Men (USA): In the Middle of No One

A fast-paced comedy thriller about love, alien abduction, the pressure cooker of solitude and the spirit of adventure.                                                                        Presented in trademark Pajama Men style with blink-of-an-eye character switches and plot twists, underscored by unflinching joke telling, In The Middle of No One is a bizarre flight of fancy-pants.

In The Middle Of No One sees a group of friends sail a ship around the world in search of things most people have never even seen, let alone know about. Hell breaks loose when members of the team become possessed by the transient ghost of a dead submarine captain who jumps between their bodies at will.

Meanwhile, a heartsick space traveller – halfway to Jupiter – forms an unlikely friendship with his philandering girlfriend's husband. There are also a couple of dudes lost in the jungle of their own minds.

Over the past seven years the PJs have won numerous comedy awards, critical acclaim and a cult-like following across the US, UK and Australia. They cut their improv teeth with Second City, the legendary Chicago theatre group that spawned the likes of Mike Myers, Bill Murray and John Belushi.
